Question:

Can I plant the seeds of nicandra directly into any compost this month [April] I live in West Central Scotland

Answer:

Thank you for your enquiry about nicandra seeds. I would wait until May to ensure that all risk of frost has passed. You will then be able to sow directly where they are to flower. However, you could sow them now into pots or trays and leave them indoors until large enough to plant out.
