Germination Guide 

• Soak seeds for 24 hours in tepid water
• Prepare a seeds tray of sieved, well-draining soil mix - ideally 50/50 good quality compost and vermiculite or horticultural sand.
• Potting mix should be moist but not wet
• Sow the seeds individually on the surface and gently press onto soil to ensure a good contact.
• Cover seeds with a thin layer (2 to 3mm) of the sieved compost mix
• Keep seeds tray at around 15-21c i.e. normal indoor UK temperatures 
• Seedlings should appear in 4-6 weeks.
• Ensure compost is kept moist but not wet - nest to place seed tray inside a waterproof tray and water from the bottom. The surface can also be misted if drying out
• Pot on as required

Container Growing

If planting in a container/pot rather than in the garden soil, ensure you used a good quality well draining compost with a  minimum of 20% horticultural grit added to aid drainage and prevent root rot. Feed once a year in spring.
