Sowing Guide - Indoors: Sow indoors 1.5cm (1/2") deep, individually in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame or greenhouse. Keep the compost moist. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 30cm (1') apart.
Sowing Guide - Outdoors: Sow outdoors where they are to flower, 1.5cm (1/2") deep, directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Sow two seeds together every 30cm (1'). Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Remove the weaker plant, which can be transplanted if desired. Water well until young plants are established.
