Sowing
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface and lightly cover with a little more compost. Place in warmth at 15–20°C and keep moist.
Growing On
Keep seedlings in a light position, shaded from direct sunlight. When large enough to handle, transplant to 8cm pots, allowing 3–4 seedlings per pot.

Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions over 2–3 weeks before planting out. Allow 30cm between each group of plants. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot for best results.

You can also sow small pinches of seed in pots and allow the plants to mature in the pots on a warm windowsill.
