How to Plant
Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost. Do not cover seeds, they need light to germinate. Water gently.

Spring, after last frost.
When to Expect Blooms
Prolific early-to-mid summer bloomer.
Care Instructions
Water regularly until they get established, and then give them extra water during dry spells. Pick the flowers to encourage more blooms.
Extra Credit
When the plant is about 12" tall you can 'pinch it' which is to pinch of the main middle bud so that the plant is encouraged to be bushier and more full of blooms as it matures.
