Sow seeds underglass 0.5cm (1/4 in) deep in pots or trays of damp, seed sowing compost and lightly cover with a sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Place containers in a propagator at a constant temperature of 18–21°C. Germination occurs in approximately 7-14 days.

What to do next

When the seedslings are large enough to handle Prick out into 9cm (3.5in) pots.
