Germination | The sowing period is from January to May. Sow the seeds on the surface of a good, free-draining, damp, seed compost and place them at a temperature of 18-29C (65-85F). Lightly cover the seeds with vermiculite. Place them in a propagator or a sealed container inside a polythene bag until after germination, which usually takes 14-30 days. Do not exclude light, as this helps germination. Transplant the seedlings when they are large enough to handle into trays or in 7.5cm (3in) pots. Gradually acclimatize the plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks, before planting them outside, after all risk of frost has past, planting them 45-60cm (18-24in) apart. An early sowing will occasionally produce flowers in the same year. Germination can take longer. Be patient! |
