CAUTION: All parts of this plant are poisonous if ingested.
- Sow undercover: March to May or Sow directly outdoors in May to June or September to October
- Sow under cover in good free draining seed compost, just covering the seed with compost.
- Germination usually takes 10-21 days at 13-15C (55-60F).
- When the seedlings are large enough to handle transplant into boxes, grow cool and finally plant out 30cm (12in) apart in sun or part shade in free draining soil.
- The easiest method is to sow in late spring/early summer outdoors gently raked into a well prepared seed bed.
- Transplanted when large enough to final flowering position.
- The seed can be scattered sparingly for a more natural look,
- directly into the flowering position although germination is likely to be poorer.
