I wathched Gardeners world recently and Monty Don put tubers of the aconite in modules rather than direct into the garden. However he didn't say how long they were to be kept there -indoor or out. I soaked them beforehand but can't find what to do now after trwling through gardeners world website. Any any clues please.
I have tried growing them before but after first year of flowering they dissappeared
