'Creme de Cassis'

9/10/06 -- If you ordered this variety in the past year or so and found that plants didn't bloom as they were supposed to, please let me know. My plants bloomed just maroon. I have changed sources for the seed, so hopefully this seed now will be true to name.

Germination: Easy germination. Start seed indoors in spring. Sow seeds on good seed starting mix, covering seeds with about 1/4" mix. Moisten mix and keep moist until germination begins. Place container in location at 68-70°F. Seed should begin germinating in 7-10 days.
