How to Sow and Plant


Sow seeds directly outdoors in early spring after frost risk has passed, or start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface or cover very thinly, as they prefer light exposure for germination

How to Grow


Plant seedlings in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade. Water consistently during establishment and moderate afterward. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage prolonged blooming. Division every few years helps maintain vigour.

Tips


Avoid waterlogged soil and overcrowding. Provide good air circulation to reduce mildew. Mulch lightly to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
