Cultivation method:

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost in pots or a seed tray filled with light, well-drained potting soil. Maintain a temperature of 72-80°F (22-26°C) for best germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors when all risk of frost has passed. Place in pots at least 10 inches (25 cm) in diameter or directly in the garden in full sun.

Tiny Tim requires regular watering to keep the soil slightly moist, but be careful not to over-wet the foliage to avoid disease. No need for stakes, as its compact, determined habit keeps the plants firmly in place.
