GROWING TIPS

 

Sow the seeds in autumn and they will automatically germinate. You can carry out a short cold stratification and then plant them at +20º C. The only requirement for this plant is a lot of watering because in its natural habitat it grows on the borders of brooks. It tolerates a wide variety of soils, preferably with good drainage, from regular to organically rich, and somewhat acid soil.
