How to care for Viola × wittrockiana Frizzle Sizzle Yellow Blue Swirl (Frizzle Sizzle Series):
Jumbo seedlings should be potted up and grown on for a few weeks in a frost-free spot - an unheated greenhouse or bright windowsill would be ideal. Larger, pot-grown plants can be planted straight out providing the soil or compost is neither waterlogged or frozen. Keep well watered, and feed with a good, high potash fertiliser (such as Tomorite) on a regular basis. Pinching off the spent flowers will encourage more to form. Protect young plants from slug damage using environmentally friendly slug pellets or beer traps.
Sowing instructions:
Late winter, spring and autumn sowings can be done in a cold frame, into trays of good seed compost and gradually hardened off before planting out. Alternatively sow directly into a well-prepared seed bed in late spring to early summer, or in autumn. Gently thin the seedlings out to 15cm apart when they are large enough to handle.
