Germination
Sow directly where they are to flower in spring, when the temp. is consistently above 10°C. Sow 3mm deep in rows 30cm apart into soil which has been well prepared and raked to a fine tilth. Germination time varies according to weather, approx. 10-25 days in spring. Once germinated thin seedlings to 15cm spacing.
Growing
Once established easy to grow. Do not fertilise as this reduces blooming. Does not like root disturbance.

This annual plant will self-seed freely.
