Alternatively sow in a prepared seed bed in May once the temperature is not expected to drop much below 10°C, in the open germination will take 2-3 weeks.

GROW: harden off & plant out after all risk of frost has passed: space at about 7-10cm apart. They like to be in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. In a mild area these may grow as a perennial.
