Please Note

These seeds should ideally be sown this season. All our packets have ‘Sow by Date’ guidance on them, this is the date the seeds should be sown in order to achieve the highest rate of germination. You will still see the same high-quality plants if sowing in seasons after the ‘Sow by Date’ but may see a reduction in germination rate

  • Suitable for fresh and dried arrangements

Sowing Outdoors
Sow in trays of pre-watered seed compost and cover lightly. Keep in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse, do not allow to dry out and allow 2-3 weeks for germination.

Growing On
When large enough to handle, transplant into 12cm pots using a well draining compost, ideally with added grit. Slowly acclimatise to outdoor conditions before planting out after frosts.

Planting Out
Choose a sunny spot in any well-drained soil. Plant approximately 40cm apart. Alternatively, plant in a large container using good quality compost, ensuring free drainage.

Aftercare
Feed annually in spring. Not fully hardy, so protect from frost, moving containers into a sheltered spot. Can also be grown as an annual.
