Sowing & growing
Sow indoors in Autumn or Spring. Can be sown outdoors once the risk of frost has passed. Soak seeds for 24 hours prior to sowing. Pinch out the top once the 2nd set of leaves have developed to produce bushy growth.
Aftercare
Deadhead and cut flowers regularly, which will prolong the flowering season. Feed with a high-potash fertiliser
