growing information

Sowing Indoors

Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface, and lightly cover them with a little more compost. Place in warmth 10-15C (50-60F) and keep moist.

Growing on / thinning

Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from bright sun. When large enough to handle, transplant 5cm (2in) apart into trays of potting compost.

Hardening off / planting

Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting from late April onwards. Allow 15cm (6in) between plants.

Special note

Ideal for rockeries. Alyssum is really a hardy annual, but as it is small seeded, best results are achieved from an indoor sowing.
