The blooms are a soft salmon-pink, often starting out apricot early in the season and warming to a peachy pink as the weeks go on - which means every picking is a little different. The stems are long and strong, and Jessie was a consistent bloomer for us last season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrowing Information\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSowing time: \u003c\/b\u003eSeeds need warmth to germinate - soil temperature of at least 18°C, ideally 20-25°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eStarting method: \u003c\/b\u003eSow into seed raising mix in small pots or trays, covering seeds lightly with about 5mm of mix. The paper towel method also works well - place seeds between damp paper towels in a warm spot (20-25°C), check daily, and pot up as soon as you see a root emerge. Once sprouted, keep seedlings in good light to avoid leggy growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination: \u003c\/b\u003eTypically 7-14 days at 18-25°C.
