Flowering

From Mid Summer TO Mid Autumn

Consolida flower approximately 14-16 weeks from Spring sowing, and blooms from mid Summer to mid Autumn

 

Planting

From Mid Spring TO Late Spring

Plant out to a sunny position in well-draining soil. As the plants grow, they will need staking

 

Propagating by seed in Spring

Germination is better if the seeds are chilled by placing them in the freezer for one week prior to sowing. Sow inside from early Spring to late Spring in compost with the seed lightly covered with vermiculite; or direct sow in late Spring

 

Propagating by seed in Autumn

From Late Summer TO Early Autumn

Sow seed in situ in late Summer or early Autumn
