Germination
Sow indoors in spring before last expected frost. Sow directly after last expected frost. Surface sow onto moist, well-drained seed compost or prepared soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. Just cover seed with a sprinkling of soil. Ideal temp. 18-20°C. Most seedlings will germinate in 1-4 weeks but germination will be erratic and could take up to 16 weeks for some varieties. If indoor sown acclimatise and plant out seedlings when well grown and after danger of frost has passed.
Growing
Prefers any moist but well-drained soil in full or partial sun. Water well when the weather is dry. Tall varieties may need staking.
Cultivation
Deadhead regularly to prolong the flowering window. Pull and compost at the end of the growing season. Propagate by seed.
