Flower of the Hour Seeds Flower of the Hour Seeds

Traditionally, the large exquisite creamy yellow blooms with their chocolate-maroon centres bloomed for an hour in the mornings. This variety, thanks to modern breeding, flowers longer. Attractive 'bladder-like' seed capsules follow the flowers. Originating in Africa this plant has been said to "work magic on gardener's hearts", as once grown always desired!. Packet Contents 20 seeds. Soak the seeds in water, when they sink they are ready for sowing. Sow into a tray of moist, firm, quality compost, pressing gently into the surface. Place in a polythene bag, in a warm, dark place at around 13-16°C (55-61°F) until germination occurs. At the first sign of germination (15-30 days), remove the bag and maintain a temperature of 15°C (60°F). Grow on in good light keeping the compost moist. Transplant the seedlings, when large enough to handle, into 9cm (3½") pots of compost and grow on in good light, watering as required. Plant out late May/June, one plant per 45cm (16") container or into a sunny border at the same spacing. Pinching out the central growing tip when 20cm (8") high will result in bushier plants.. Flower / Fruit from July-September. Average Growing Height: 81-90CM. .
