The daisy-like blooms reach up to 8cm wide and float above fine, lacy foliage. This award-winning mix of colours features strong, long stems suitable for cut flowers. Sow seeds from March to May at a depth of 3mm in good quality seed compost, covered with a fine sprinkling of vermiculite. Place the seed tray in a propagator at 18-25°C or seal in a polythene bag, keeping the soil damp but not wet. Light is essential for germination, which usually takes 7-15 days. Transplant seedlings into 7cm pots when large enough to handle and grow in cooler conditions until ready to plant outdoors. After all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise plants to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days. Plant outdoors in full sun in any moist, well-drained soil, 45cm apart. Pinch out the growing tip of each stem to encourage branching and more flowers. This half-hardy annual can reach a height of up to 60cm and spread up to 40cm. Supplied as 1 packet (30 seeds). Delivered with growing and care instructions. Images are for guidance only and may vary due to growing conditions or seasonality.
