Semi-double and single, large, waved, upright blooms distinct and charming. 80% true from seed as they can make fine cut flowers and can also be used as summer flowering pot plants for the cold greenhouse. Flowers summer to autumn. Height 36in.

Sowing Instructions. Sow 3mm (1/8in) deep in spring at 21-24C (70-75F) in a good seed compost. Keep soil damp but not wet, sealing in a polythene bag after sowing is helpful. Germination usually takes 5-10 days.

Growing Instructions. When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant and grow on in cooler conditions. Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 60cm (24in) apart.

Aftercare Instructions. Plant in a sunny spot on light well drained soil. For pot plants, transplant the seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots, grow cool, well ventilated and give plenty of light, but shade from direct sun.
