Technical specifications
| Approx. Seed count | 10 seeds |
| When to Sow | January to April |
| Where to Sow | Plant seeds in pots or trays filled with quality seed compost under glass. Cover lightly with a sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Keep the containers in a propagator at a warm temperature to encourage germination. |
| What to do Next | When seedlings are large enough to handle, transfer them into individual pots. Move them to hanging baskets or containers as they grow. Place outdoors only after the frost risk has passed. Water consistently and feed with a high-potash fertilizer once the first truss has developed to promote healthy growth and abundant yields. |
