Perennial seeds require a wintering period for germination. Place them in the fridge for 60 days before sowing in spring. Sow in trays, covering the seeds lightly. When the plants have 5 to 6 leaves, transplant into individual cups or directly into warmed soil. Autumn sowing is done in the same way and left outdoors until spring.
Germination takes from 30 to 90 days at between 13°C and 23°C.
