Sowing & growing

Feb-March, sow in a seed tray under glass and keep soil moist. Best sown in-situ from March-June. Sow finely and thin out to the strongest plants every 30cm once growing well. Can also be sown Aug-Sep and overwintered for stronger plants the following year.

Aftercare

Plants may need staking to support the heavy flower heads in more exposed locations.
