Planting / Sowing
Sow seed 1 to 1.5 cm deep into well drained, fertile soil in full sun. Sow in cooler months for best establishment. Keep soil evenly moist during germination. Space plants 90 to 120 cm apart, as mature plants are large and spreading. Plants prefer rich soil and regular watering, particularly during bud formation. Allow adequate airflow around plants to reduce disease pressure.
