Sowing and/or growing instructions
Resents disturbance so it is best to sow direct - just scatter seed in the desired position. Protect seedlings from slugs and snails. Thin to 1ft/30cm apart, choosing the most robust plants. Alternatively, sow thinly in modules, retaining one plant in each. Plant out carefully, avoiding root disturbance.
