Growing Tips for New Zealand
Direct sow in autumn or spring in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Lagurus is unfussy and thrives in poor to average soil. Thin seedlings to 15–20 cm apart. Harvest seed heads for drying when still green for the best results. Excellent for most NZ regions, particularly coastal and drier areas.
