Product details
How
Press lightly (as seeds need light to germinate) into trays of Yates® Black Magic® Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and water with a fine mist spray. Keep trays in a warm place, and retain moisture by covering with glass or plastic cling film. Transplant when large enough to handle.
Care
Choose a sunny, well-drained position. Add Yates® Thrive® Natural Blood & Bone before planting and apply Yates® Thrive® Flower & Fruit Soluble Fertiliser fortnightly. Protect from snails and slugs.
Hint
Prune after flower flushes to encourage compact growth, and more flowering.
Storage
Store in a cool dry place away from direct Sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
