Description

An opportunity to grow something special and different, this intensely coloured wild species from North Africa constantly produces its perfectly formed flowers throughout the summer. Creating enviable eye-catching displays over fences, trellis, obelisks and any other support. This vigorous climber grows well in the UK, benefitting from a sunny sheltered position. A half hardy annual, flowers the same year as sown.

Sow indoors for surest results, 1.5cm (½”) deep, in a tray of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame, unheated greenhouse or on a cool windowsill. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Transplant individually when large enough to handle to 8cm (3”) pots. (Always hold seedlings by a leaf, never by the stem.) Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 30cm (1’) apart, when frosts are over. Support plants with canes, netting or trellis.
Caution: Humans/Pets: Pods and seeds are not edible.
