Spring flowering

From Mid Spring TO Mid Summer

Senetti plants produce a stunning display of vivid flowers throughout mid to late spring. Deadheading will prolong the blooms.

 

Plant out young plants

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Young plants should be planted out once the worst of the frosts have past.

 

Propagation by seed

From Early Spring TO Mid Spring

Fill a seed tray with seed compost,water and allow to drain.Sprinkle seeds over the surface allowing roughly 25mm space between seeds and cover with a thin layer of compost. Put tray in a clear polythene bag and place on a windowsill. When seedlings show remove plastic bag.When the second pair of leaves appear on the seedlings thin out to 50mm spacing by removing the weakest looking plants. After 2 or 3 weeks and when danger of frost has passed plants can then be planted outside into required position.
