Germination
Sow directly. Sow thinly in rows covering lightly with soil. Seed dormancy is broken by a period of exposure to cold so best sown in autumn or before the weather warms. Should germinate freely. Seedlings look like grass to begin but quickly develop.
Growing
Will grow in any situation. Requires little attention.
Cultivation
Will self-seed freely. Deadhead if you do not want it to self-seed.
