Aubrieta T&M Mixed Hybrids Seeds

Sow Aubrieta from February to June, in a seed tray. Use good quality compost. Broadcast sow your seeds. Cover the seeds with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite, tamp down lightly and water copiously in a fine spray or a fine mist. Place your tray in a bright place without direct sunlight, at a temperature of 18 °C.

Germination takes 14 to 21 days. As soon as the seedlings are large enough to be handled, prick them out into 7 cm pots. Then 15 days before planting them out in their final positions, start to acclimatize them gradually down to a temperature of 10-12 °C.

End of May, beginning of June, the temperatures in the garden should be warm enough to plant out your seedlings. Choose a position with lots of sun. Add a good shovelful of compost to each planting hole. Space your plants 30 cm apart.

Cut the mounds back slightly after flowering to maintain a compact growth habit.
