How To Grow Nigella
Growing Info:
Sow outside where they are to flower March-May. Sow 3mm deep in rows 30cm apart. Alternatively scatter the seeds and lightly rake into the fine soil.
Can also be sown directly Aug-Nov for earlier show of flowers the following year. An easy-to-grow annual which will self-seed unless deadheaded and seed pods removed.
Aftercare:
If growing for cut flowers, leave some to develop seed pods which can then be picked for drying.
