Product details
How
Press lightly (as seeds need light to germinate) into trays of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and water with a fine mist spray. Keep trays in a warm place and retain moisture by covering with glass or plastic cling wrap untill seedlings appear. Transplant when large enough to handle.
Care
Choose a Sunny, well drained soil. Add Yates Thrive Natural Blood & Bone and Yates Thrive Natural Yates Thrive Natural Garden Lime (to acid soils) before planting. Apply Yates Thrive Flower & Fruit Soluble Plant Food fortnightly for stronger plants. Pinch prune early buds for heavier branching. Protect from snails and slugs.
Hint
Cut stalks back after first flush to encourage a second flowering. Autumn sown plants will need protection from frosts when young.
Storage
Store in a cool dry place away from direct Sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
