I cant get them to germinate!
I want to start them in pots and then plant them up in the (old) fire buckets round the workshop. I thought they were tough enough to cope with the wind and would make a brave show in appropriate (fire-y) colours. But out of 20 seeds, only 2 plants. They are supposed to be easy, suitable for kids, tough etc etc, so why wont they go? They just sit in pots, in the soil, whereever. Ideas?
