Cultural instructions:
- Plant in March onwards in a frost-free environment
- Regular deadheading will keep them flowering continuously
- Pot up into 7cm (2.7") pots of free-draining compost and grow them on in frost-free conditions until large enough to plant outside
- Plants are best grown on the dry side rather than being too wet
- Once the plants have a well-established root system, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions for 7 - 10 days and only plant out when all threat of frost has passed
- Alternatively they can be planted into containers filled with good quality, well-drained compost
- Choose a sunny or semi-shaded spot
- Keep well-watered, regular feeding should begin 6 - 8 weeks after planting into their final position
- Feed with a fertiliser such as Richard Jackson's Flower Power or liquid tomato food
- Remove spent blooms to keep displays looking fresh and full of flowers until the frosts
