best sown in spring or autumn in temperate climates, avoid the coldest and hottest months of the year. The optimum germination temperature for germination is around 18-22°C Sow seed on surface of a porous seed raising mix. The seed will lodge in the the pores of the mix once watered. Sprinkle a very light covering of the seed raising mix over the seed if required to hold the seed in place. Do not bury seed deeply. Water with fine mist spray to avoid disturbance of the seed. Place in a warm shaded or semi shaded position to avoid dying out. Keep warm & moist, avoid drying out or waterlogging the growing mix. Germination generally occurs in around 14-28 days in the right condition.
