How To Grow
Sow seeds directly where they are to grow in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Plant seeds in pairs around 12 mm deep and space planting positions about 25 cm apart. Keep soil moist during establishment and free from weeds. Once seedlings appear, thin to the strongest plant in each position. Avoid feeding, as excess fertiliser encourages leafy growth at the expense of flowers. Seedlings usually emerge in 14–21 days.
