Cultivation Advice
- Sow from 4 weeks prior to the last frost in spring under cover with warmth provided.
- Germination 10-14 days at 72 to 75ºF (22 to 24ºC).
- Keep media moist and near saturation by watering before placement of seed.
- Press the seed lightly in soil and cover lightly, as the seed does not need light for germination.
- Once seedlings emerge grow on with less moisture in cooler conditions.
- Transplant to trays when large enough to handle and grow on in cooler conditions.
- Gradually acclimatise outside when all danger of frost has passed.
- This species does not appreciate feeding until mature and flowering.
