Mr Fothergills Cleome Colour Fountain

Large, lightly scented heads create great impact These elegant, architectural plants create a light, open appeal in summer borders with their huge blooms in shades of pink, lilac and white. Colour Fountain also makes an unusual cut flower. Cleome is a half-hardy annual, which flowers the same year as sowing. Originally from the West Indies and South America, it does best in a warm, sunny position on light, fertile well-drained soils, especially sandy ones.

Sow indoors, February-April. A warm kitchen windowsill is all you need for starting these seeds. Sow, 0.5cm (¼") deep, in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Transplant them, 5cm (2") apart, to further trays when large enough to handle (always hold by a leaf, never by the stem). Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out, May-June, 45cm (18") apart, into well-drained soil, when frosts are over. Flowers: July-October.
