Instantly appealing! Uniform, free-flowering plants with gorgeous ruffled blooms in attractive bicoloured sky-blue and sandy yellow shades. Adds a relaxing French Riviera feel to borders and containers. Height: 11-15cm (4-6 inches).
Sow seeds on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost, then apply a fine sprinkling of vermiculite, just covering the seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag and place at a temperature of 15-20C (60-68F) until after germination which usually takes 10-15 days. Take care not to provide too high a temperature, as this can prevent germination.
September sown plants should be over-wintered in a coldframe, and planted out the following spring.
