Rhodochiton ‘Rhodos’ flowers from summer to early autumn, producing exotic-looking maroon flowers that dangle like gorgeous drop earrings amidst heart-shaped green leaves. A fast-growing annual climber, it will quickly cover an arch or trellis, and can also be grown in a hanging basket.

Sow indoors

Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface, and lightly cover them with a little more compost. Place in the warmth, 15-18°C and keep moist. Cover the tray with cling film but remove as soon as seedlings begin to emerge.

Grow on

Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant 5cm apart into trays of potting compost.

Harden off/plant out

Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting out when danger of frost has passed. Allow 90cm between plants.

Advice

This seed is tiny and needs handling with care to avoid crushing. For extra protection and ease of sowing it is pelleted and filled into a fine seed sower.

How to grow

Sow seeds on to the surface of pre-watered seed compost, but don't cover them. Keep warm, around 20°C and keep moist, but not wet. Allow 1-2 weeks for germination.
