Sowing Info
Sow seeds on the surface of a good, freedraining, damp, seed compost, and apply a fine sprinkling of vermiculite, just covering the seed. Place container in a propagator or seal inside a polythene bag and place at a warm temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) until after germination which usually takes 10-15 days. Take care not to provide too high a temperature, as this can prevent germination.
