& Mimulus Monkey Magic F1 Hybrid 1 Seed Packet

Grow your own marvellous Monkey Flowers with 'Monkey Magic' F1 Hybrid. The 5cm pure white blooms are sensationally splashed with vibrant red, giving a highly exotic-look. These plants make wonderfully eye-catching summer bedding at the front of borders and for patio pots, where they will flower from early summer, transforming shady spots in your garden. Culinary note: the leaves of the monkeyflower can be eaten raw or cooked. They have a slightly bitter flavour and are mostly added to salads as the leaves can also be used as a lettuce substitute. Sow March to May. Germinate at 20-30C (68-86F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Do not cover the seed. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 10-21 days. Do not exclude light at any stage, 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, 23-30cm (9-12in) apart. After flowering, trim plants lightly to encourage a second flush of blooms.
