How To Grow Ammobium From Seed
Sow 1/4" deep into moist, well drained seed compost at 59F between Feb-April. Germination usually takes around 2-3 weeks. Transplant the seedlings when large enough to handle into 9cm pots and grow on. Plant out once any danger of frost has passed. Ammobium prefer a sunny position in sandy soil although any moist well drained soil will be fine. Keep deadheading to encourage the flowering period.
