Height: 8-10cm (3-4in)
Sow March to April.
Germinate at 20-30C (68-86F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Do not cover seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 7-30 days. Do not exclude light at any stage, as this helps germination. Can also be sown direct outdoors in May.
