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.
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.
