Planting & Care

Plant prefers rich, moisture retentive loam, plenty of water, and a part shade to full sun exposure. The seeds are slow to germinate and should be kept barely covered, cool, evenly moist, and in part shade. Pot up seedlings and work up to size before transplanting out. This usually takes 6 weeks in the spring greenhouse or in the summer shadehouse. Space plants 2 feet apart.
