Approx. 75 seeds
Sow outdoors, March-May, where they are to flower, 0.5cm (¼") deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 25cm (10") apart. Water well until plants are established. Flowers: June-October.
Water gently to avoid disturbing the seeds.
Remove dead heads to prolong flowering season. Pinch out the central growing tip, when plants are about 1cm (4") tall, to encourage bushy growth and plenty of flowers.
