Ensure your soil has a ph of between 5.6 and 7.5 as Dutch is a weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil loving plant.

Growing Dutch from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 7.8 inches (20.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.58 inches (1.5 cm).

Transplanting Dutch

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Dutch is a half hardy plant.
