Care and cultivation advice

Propagate indoors in seed soil March-April, preferably covered with a transparent cover with air holes. Make sure to water before sowing and keep the soil moist throughout the germination period. Before germination, the seedlings should be stored at a temperature of 20-25 degrees and after germination in a cool place with as much light as possible.

The plants are planted out after they have hardened off properly and when the risk of frost is over. Thrives best in a sunny position in well-fertilized and well-drained soil. The variety can also be sown directly on the site in May-June, when the soil is warmed and ready for use.

For a longer and more splendid flowering period, regularly trim the edges of wilted flowers. Cut a few millimeters above the top pair of leaves on the stem where the flower is located. This encourages new flowering and growth.
