Sowing advice

Sow autumn winter and spring. Sow in trays or pots . Surface sow onto moist well-drained seed raising mix. Cover with just a sprinkle of mix, as seeds require light for germination. Propagate 18-22°C. Keep in cooler conditions after germination occurs. Germination will occur in 4-8 weeks.
