• Sow seed under cover from February into modules or seed trays and cover with a light covering of compost. Keep moist. You can use heat like a heat mat to help germinate, this is not essential but germination will be better if somewhere warm like a warm house or airing cupboard is used ( this is the case for pretty much most seed ). Once germinated move off heat and place in a sunny area. 
  • If using seed trays then once seedlings have two leaves, prick out individually into modules and grow on, hold them by the leaf to move them not by the stem ( see my video on YouTube to show you how). 
  • Plant out once frosts have passed unless covering the small plants with fleece to protect them. You can remove any protective fleece once the chance of frosts have gone. Planting can be quite close which I like as it creates impact,  try and mix this with Calendula, the blue of Borage and the orange of Calendula go beautifully together.
