75 seeds
Sowing: Sow the seeds indoors in March or April. Once they’ve sprouted and have two pairs of leaves, transplant into individual 7cm pots and grow on under cover until large enough to plant out. Gradually harden off before planting out after all risk of frost has passed. Can sow in situ from May.
Stake the plants if necessary, water regularly and dead-head to prolong the flowering season.
