Brachycome Bravo Seeds - Brachyscome iberidifolia Seeds

Sow Brachycome 'Bravo' from February to April in a seed tray. Use high-quality soil that you will sieve on the surface to bind the seed to its substrate. Before sowing, lightly press down the soil with a board. Sow your seeds by broadcasting. Cover the seeds by sprinkling soil on top or vermiculite, lightly press down and water generously with a fine rain. Place your seed tray in light, without direct sunlight, at a temperature of 18°C to 21°C. Lower the temperature at night to 18°C to create a beneficial alternation for germination.

The seeds will germinate in 7 to 21 days. As soon as the plants are manageable, transplant them into 7cm (2.8 in) pots. Keep the soil moist but not excessive during growth. By pinching the tips of the young shoots at 5 cm (2 in), you will stimulate branching of the plant.
15 days before their final placement, start gradually acclimatizing them to a temperature of 15°C.

By the end of May or early June, the temperature in the garden will be warm enough to plant your young plants. Choose a sunny location. Add a good shovel of compost to each planting hole. Space your plants 20 cm (7.9 in) apart.

Regularly remove faded flowers to maintain beauty and promote renewal.
