| Growing Info: Sow inside Oct-Apr. Soak seeds in water for 24 hours prior to sowing to aid germination. Sow in deep trays or pots, 1cm deep, and propagate at 20-25°C. Grow seedlings on in cooler temperatures and acclimatise before planting out when frosts have passed. Alternatively, sow outdoors Apr-May, 2.5cm deep, 8cm apart. Pinch out the tips once the 2nd set of leaves appear, to encourage side shoots. |

| Aftercare: Pick the flowers or deadhead regularly to ensure continued flowering. Keep cut flowers out of direct sunlight to prolong vase life. |
