Sowing instructions: Feb-Jun or Sep-Oct. Sow seed on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays. Do not cover the seed. Keep at a temperature of between 15-20C. After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination can take 1-3 months
Planting instructions: Moist soil in (partial) shade
