Mr. Fothergill’s 15492 Alyssum Snow Cloth, White

Sow outdoors, March-May, where they are to flower, 0.5cm (¼”) deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 15cm (6″) apart. Water well until plants are established and keep weed free. Or sow indoors, February-April, 0.5cm (¼”) deep, in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 10-15°C (50-60°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Transplant seedlings, 5cm (2″) apart, to other trays when large enough to handle (always handle by a leaf and never by the stem). Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out, May-June, 15cm (6″) apart, when frosts are over. Flowers: June-October.
