Mr Fothergills Canary Creeper
Description
A profusion of small, yellow, fringed flowers and lobed leaves - happy to trail or climb and ideal for giving quick cover.
Sow outdoors, April-June, where they are to flower, 1.5cm (½") deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Sow two seeds together every 20cm (8"). Seedlings appear in 14-35 days. Remove the weaker plant, which can be transplanted elsewhere if desired. Water well until young plants are established. Or sow indoors, February-May, for earlier flowers, 1.5cm (½") deep, individually in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame or greenhouse. Keep the compost moist. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out, May-June, 45cm (18") apart, when frosts are over. Flowers: July-October.
