Propagation
Surface sow seeds in spring and maintain a temperature of 16º to 18º C. (61º to 64º F). Prick out when large enough to handle and pot up.
Take soft tip cuttings of non-flowering shoots during the growing period and insert in a well drained sandy medium and placed in a protected position (misting). Apply bottom heat to encourage fast root development.
