Description
PLEASE NOTE: This is a seed packet
Dainty blooms for early summer. Unusual double, short spurred ‘Columbines’
Sow indoors for surest results, 0.5cm (1/4″) deep, in a tray of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame, unheated greenhouse or on a warm kitchen windowsill. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 21-42days. Transplant individually when large enough to handle to 8cm (3″) pots. (Always hold seedlings by a leaf, never by the stem.) Gradullay accustom young plants to outside conditions before planting out 30cm (1′) apart.
Sow outdoors in a seed bed, 0.5cm (1/4″) deep into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 5cm (2″) apart before planting out to flowering position in autumn.
Hint: The trimming back of dead stems after flowering will encourage the plants to remain as a compact clump.
