How to Grow
Position
Full sun or part shade
How
Sow into trays of Yates Seed Raising Mix. Firm down, water gently and keep moist through germination period. Transplant when large enough to handle.
Care
Choose a well drained position in full sun or semi-shade. Add Yates Blood & Bone before planting, and fertilise regularly with Yates Thrive Soluble Flower & Fruit Plant Food. Protect from snails and slugs with Yates Blitzem.
Hint
Great companion plant for beans, lettuce and spinach. Makes an ideal ground cover in light shade. Strawberries like to be well mulched.
