Why Grow This Mix
- Red, pink and white flowers create an easy mixed display.
- Fully double pompon-like blooms give pots and edging a neat, finished look.
- Pellets are easier to place accurately in individual tray cells.
- Compact plants combine well with bulbs, violas and other cool-season colour.
Growing Notes
- Sow one pellet per clean cell and keep the pellet moist enough to dissolve without saturating the mix.
- Give bright light and cooler, airier conditions after emergence.
- Transplant a rooted plug after the first true leaves develop, then harden off over 7–10 days.
- Use fertile, well-drained soil and keep the crown level with the soil surface.
- Deadhead regularly and expect the display to decline as sustained heat arrives.
