Sowing:
Sow February to April. Sow seeds in pots or trays of moist seed compost. Do not cover the seed. Place in a propagator or warm place, and keep at a constant temperature of between 75-80F. After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination will usually take 14 to 21 days.
Growing:
When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 3 inch pots or trays. Gradually acclimatize young plants to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 9 inches apart, or transplant into containers.
Aftercare:
For best results, provide a rich, well-drained soil in full sun.
