Sowing method: Year-round in a seed tray, first provide warmth for 2-4 weeks (18-22° C), then a cold period in, for example, the refrigerator (+4° C) for 4-6 weeks, then slowly warm up to room temperature, after which germination will follow. Sowing directly into the ground is also possible; just let winter pass, and germination will occur in spring.
