Planting Outdoors
From Mid Spring TO Late Spring
Plant out container grown plants in partial shade, morning sun is good, into a fertile but moist position. Pinching out the tops will make them grow bushier.
Propagating by seed
From Late Winter TO Early Spring
Sow seed into trays of compost, press them into the soil only, keep the compost moist and place in a plastic bag or propagator. when they are big enough to handle replant them into containers and put in a cooler place.
