Product details
How
Sow direct where they are to grow, or in trays of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix. Cover with mix, water gently and keep moist but not wet. Transplant when large enough to handle.
Care
Choose a Sunny, well-drained position. These plants will tolerate sandy or poor soil, but don't like over-moist conditions. Water regularly until flowering time and feed with Yates Thrive Flower & Fruit Soluble Plant Food just prior to blooms opening. Protect from snails and slugs.
Hint
Remove spent flowers to encourage more blooms, and keep self-seeding under control. Not suitable for planting around grazing livestock - toxic to horses and ruminants.
Storage
Store in a cool dry place away from direct Sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
