Growing Information

Sow your seeds by scattering them into weed free soil, then rub your hand over the area to bury your seeds. Your seedlings should appear in 10-14 days. You can also sow a couple of seeds into a small pot to grow on your windowsill and plant out later. When your plants are big enough to handle, move them so they are at least four kids’ hands width apart. Removing faded flowers will encourage new ones. You can pick young flowers/leaves and eat them in salads. See your flowers from June to September.
