Sowing Guide

  • Sow in autumn, winter or early spring
  • Sow seeds thinly into trays or large pots containing a good quality seed compost ideally mixed with perlite/vermiculite
  • Do not cover the seed with compost as light is required for germination, just tightly press the seeds into the earth.
  • Moisten the seeds, cover the container with a clear plastic dome or put it in a clear plastic bag so the seeds remain moist. Keep at temperatures of around 15 to 20°C
  • Put the container in indirect light away from the sun, germination should take place in two to four weeks. 
  • After the seedlings appear, remove the cover and place them where they can get plenty of sun and maintain a temperature of around 15°C until the seedlings are established.
  • Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them to 15" pots containing gritty compost. 
  • They will form a bushy plant and be ready to go into the garden in summer. 
  • Choose a position where either the morning or evening sunlight will illuminate the thread-like sprays, the low slanting light will make them glow as they wave in the breeze. Space at 60 to 90cm  between plants.
