Hi Rimmer, Mine start growing shortly after I water them, so just pick your convenient season or conditions and then start watering. I consider them to be sort of opportunistic growers rather than rigid summer- or winter-growers. They probably tolerate a moderate amount of cold, depending on where your stock came from. I think they are normally considered to be summer-growing, and summer or at least spring seems to have finally arrived around here.
