from zoewoodwardgardening:"How to grow:Start seeds in mid-late February. Sow onto the surface of the compost. Seeds require light for germination, do not cover with soil.
Seeds benefit from a bit of warmth to trigger germination, 22-25°C is ideal.
Be careful not to overwater, Rudbeckia don't like prolonged wet conditions and this can cause seedlings to rot.
I like to 'pot on' into 9cm pots which means I can delay 'planting out' until June which is when I find gaps starting to appear in the garden and the early displays in containers go over."
