Sow in trays under light shelter. Transplant into pots when plants reach 3 or 4 cm. Plant out after the last frosts, 30 cm apart in all directions. You can also sow directly in situ, covering the seeds very lightly. Keep the soil moist. Then thin out to 30 cm in all directions. Staggered sowing will prolong flowering. Autumn sowing can be used for early spring flowering.
