How To Grow
Sow virtually year round avoiding the hottest and coldest months. The seeds can be scattered thinly or sown in the flowering position. Cover lightly with a seed raising mix, firm down and keep moist. Thin out as necessary. Choose a well drained soil and a sunny position. Flowers will appear after 8-14 weeks and continue over many months. Seedlings emerge 10-28 days. Use a mulch where possible to preserve moisture and deter weeds. Remove dead flower heads to prolong flowering.
