Growing tips

<p>Sow seeds <strong>February to June</strong>. As the seed is fine and needs light, <strong>surface sow</strong> on a moist mix and barely press in; do not bury deeply. Germination takes <strong>7-14 days</strong> in warm conditions (22-28°C). Transplant seedlings at the 3-4 leaf stage into pots or beds, spacing 20-25 cm apart. Plants begin flowering about <strong>60-80 days</strong> from sowing and hold their crests for weeks.</p>
