Product details
How
Sow direct where they are to grow or in trays of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix. Press lightly into surface and keep moist.
Care
For best colour and prolonged flowering, choose a lightly shaded, moist position. Add Yates Thrive Natural Blood & Bone before planting and feed regularly with Yates Thrive Soluble Plant Food. Water well during warm dry weather. Protect from snails and slugs.
Hint
Water regularly at base of plant to avoid fungal diseases. Remove central flower spike when blooms fade to encourage smaller side shoots to develop. Once established these plants will self seed for many years.

Store in a cool dry place away from direct Sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
