In the tropical areas, it can be grown as a cool-season annual. It prefers full sun, but this may depend upon how hot the garden aspect is. Sorrel can tolerate part shade and some gardeners recommend a sheltered position.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSorrel is propagated by seed sown directly into the garden or by wind-pollinated, self-sowing seed in later years. Seedlings should be thinned to approximately 30 cm apart. Mature plants can be divided and transplanted once the leaves and stems have been trimmed. The plants benefit from pruning after flowering to encourage new growth. If you do not wish sorrel to self-seed, remove the seed heads before the wind dispersal begins. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Happy Valley Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Pack: 50 seeds","offer_id":45853975249208,"sku":"H-B101","price":1.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2g","offer_id":45853975281976,"sku":"BW-H-B101_2g","price":14.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/5416\/2522\/products\/sorrel-red-seeds-966429.jpg?v=1700727303"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.happyvalleyseeds.com.au\/collections\/sorrel-seeds.oembed","provider":"Happy Valley Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
