Ammi majus
Very pretty and elegant with lace-like umbels made up of tiny white flowers - rather like fancy cow parsley. Invaluable in a mixed border and wonderful for cutting.

Indoor growing instructions In trays of seed compost, sow thinly and cover with a fine layer of compost. Firm gently, keep moist and cover with glass, polythene or propagator lid. Keep at approx. 15-20°C. Germination takes 14-28 days. Remove cover when seedlings appear and transplant when large enough, 5cm apart in trays. Acclimatise plants to outdoor temperatures from late May and transplant 25cm apart in flowering position.
Outdoor growing instructions Directly into prepared soil in final flowering position. Sow thinly in rows 30cm apart and cover with a fine layer of soil. Firm gently and keep moist. When large enough thin to 25cm apart.
Tip Provide plants with support in windy locations.
