- Sow seed on the surface of good free draining, damp, seed compost and cover with a fine sprinkling of vermiculite.
- Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag and place at 20-25°C (68-77F) until after germination which takes 2-4 weeks. Do not exclude daylight as this helps germination.
- Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle, into trays or 7.5cm (3in) pots.
- Grow on in cooler conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 30cm (12in) apart.
Sow Livingstone Daisy seeds indoors 6 - 8 weeks before the last frost. Or, sow Ice Plant ground cover seeds outdoors after danger of frost has passed. If started indoors, transplant when seedlings are 2 inches tall and space them 12 inches apart. Apply a slow-release fertilizer at the time of transplanting.
