Growing from Seed

Penny Blacks

20 years ago

I have sown some penny blacks that look beautiful on the seed packages... I sowed some indoors and some winter sowing method to experiment and see which method I liked best... the winter sowing method ones look different and better?... can I repot the indoor ones deeper into soil so they aren't so leggy??

They look a bit messy now but they'll be fine once you harden them off and get them in the garden. Definitely a cool weather plant, mine give up by mid summer.
