Sow in late summer and autumn, so it can grow during the winter before it goes dormant in the summer. In other regions sow at the beginning of the growing season.
‘How deep should I sow:’ Sow shallow just under the surface and cover with well-drained sandy medium. The seeds like good light conditions for growing after germination. To germination temperatures that fluctuate day/night helps germination. Low temp down to about 10oC and day temps above 18 and into lower 200C.
