Sowing and/or growing instructions | ||||||||||||
Sow under glass in spring or summer, on the surface of good quality, moist compost, covering with a sprinkling of sieved compost or fine vermiculite. Maintain a temperature of 70-75F (21-24C). Germination usually occurs in 14 days, but can be erratic. Transplant outdoors after all danger of frost is past, growing on in individual pots, planting out when large enough. Plants can reach a height of around 2m but can be cut back to suit. Suckers can be removed and discarded or planted elsewhere if desired. |
