Advice from our agronomist
Planting Plant from April to September, 40–50 cm apart. Water the pot thoroughly before planting and let the root ball soak.
Position Choose a sunny or semi-shaded spot and fertile, moderately moist soil.
Care Water regularly. Cut the plant before the seeds ripen to prevent self-seeding. Cutting encourages new growth.
