Sow under cover in spring, and plant out after the last frost. Large seeds. Dib a little hole in your cell trays, place them in and lightly cover with compost. Fragile roots, so go gentle when transplanting from cells. Can also be direct sown when the weather and soil has warmed.

For the best vase life harvest when only a few of the flowers have opened. The other flower buds will continue to open in the vase.
