How to Sow and Plant

Prepare well-drained soil and sow seeds directly on the soil surface after the last frost or start indoors 4–6 weeks earlier.

Lightly press seeds into the soil without deep covering, maintain spacing, and keep the soil moist until germination occurs in about 7–21 days.

How to Grow

Choose a sunny location with at least 6+ hours of sunlight.

Water regularly but allow the topsoil to dry slightly between waterings.

Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and trim back excessive growth as needed for a neat appearance.

Tips

Enrich the soil with organic compost before planting for vigorous growth.

Thin seedlings if overcrowded to improve air circulation.

Use mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
