Product Information
A gourmet treat, very popular in the Mediterranean. Eat the fleshy base of the 'scales' dipped in butter and saute the hearts as a delicious appetiser. The flowers and foliage make very ornamental plants.
Sowing Instructions
Sow indoors, February to March. 0.5cm deep in a tray of seed compost. Water well and maintain a temperature of 15-20 degrees C (60-68 degrees F). Keep moist. Transplant 5cm apart to other trays when large enough to handle. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 90cm (3ft) apart.
Sow outdoors, May to June. Thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 90cm (3ft) between rows. Seedlings usually appear within 14-28 days. Thin plants to 90cm (3ft) apart. Plants should crop for 4-5 years.
