Description

Specially bred for improved disease resistance and great garden performance. Bushy plants, smothered in a beautiful array of fully round, cool white blooms from June to September. Ideal for annual borders or looking spectacular in containers. Height 40-50cm (16-20 inches).

Sowing Instructions

Sow seed in pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover with a sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or warm place, and keep at a temperature of between 18-23C (65-75F). After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist but not waterlogged; germination will usually take 14-21 days. When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots or trays.

Growing Instructions

Grow on at a slightly lower temperature with good light and ventilation . Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 30-45cm (12-18in) apart or in containers.

Aftercare Instructions

For best results, grow in a well-drained soil in full sun.
