Place seeds in the refrigerator for 60 days before sowing in spring. Sow in trays, making sure seeds are lightly covered. When the plants have 5 to 6 leaves, transplant into individual cups or directly into warmed soil. Autumn sowing is carried out in the same way, and is left outdoors until spring. They can also be sown directly in the ground.
Very slow growth, but can flower the first year.
