Germination
Sow directly in late spring. Surface sow onto prepared soil which has been raked to a fine tilth and is in a warm, sunny spot. Cover seed with a sprinkling of soil only as light is needed for germination. Ideal temp. 22-24°C. Germination takes 7-15 days. Thin seedlings as required. Can be started early indoors if desired, 6-8 weeks prior to last expected frost.
Growing
Prefers a moderately fertile neutral to alkaline, well-drained soil in full sun.
Cultivation
Self sows freely. Deadhead if you do not want volunteer seedlings next season.
