How To Grow
Sow late Summer and Autumn – earlier in cold districts, 5mm (1/4”) deep in seed tray or punnet. Keep moist. Transplant to final position when large enough to handle. Plant firmly 60cm (24”) apart each way, water well. May also be sown direct in clumps, later thinning to one seedling. Seedlings emerge 6-10 days.
