Growing at a glance…
Sow indoors from early spring (January to March) or outside from April to May. Sprinkle over a seed tray and firm down the seeds. Keep somewhere light, like a windowsill, as this aids germination. Once the seeds are big enough to transplant, move them outdoors gradually, acclimatising them to the temperatures before finally planting them out in their final positions. Ensure they get plenty of sunand water regularly through hot periods. These flowers are great for dehydrating - simply tie them in bunches and keep them somewhere dry until they're completely dehydrated.
