Any tips please?
Have tried with limited success for a few seasons to grow cleomes from seed.
I carefully follow temperature recommendations etc but germination is poor.

Hi Sue,
Not much help I know :-( but I couldn't get them to germinate either.
Just looking now I see they need stratification (warmth/cold/warmth) in
order to germinate and my packet of seeds never mentioned that!
Try sowing a few in a pot now and just leave it in a sheltered spot
outdoors and see what comes up next spring?
Have a look here also (need to scroll down the page a bit)

Oh, and good luck :-)
