Features: Vibrant and free flowering with created blooms.
Sowing Guide - Indoors: Sow indoors, for surest results, 0.5cm (1/4") deep, in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20oC (60-68oF) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Transplant seedlings 5cm (2") apart to other trays when large enough to handle. (Always handle by a leaf, never by the stem.) Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 20cm (8") apart, when frosts are over.
Sowing Guide - Outdoors: Sow outdoors for ease, where they are to flower, 1.5cm (1/2") deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Thin seedlings as required. Water well until plants are established.
Soil Type: Well drained, fertile
Position: Full sun
Hints & Tips: Remove dead flowers regularly to prolong the flowering season. The blooms will attract lots of beneficial insects to the garden.
