When to sow indoors: February to March

How to grow indoors: Sow in pots or trays of seed compost, lightly covering the seed. Maintain a temperature of 15-20C (60-68F) and keep moist. Thin seedlings to further trays or pots when large enough to handle. Gradually harden off April to early May before planting in flowering position from late May to early June, spacing 2ft (60cm) apart.

Flowers: June to October

When to sow outdoors: June to July

How to grow outdoors: Sow in a seed bed directly and transplant to flowering position in September.

Hope this helps, thats wot its got on my seed packet anyway lol
