How to Plant
Sprinkle into the dirt 1/8" deep or less, as they need light to germinate. Space 2" apart. Water gently & regularly as seedlings emerge over the next 2 weeks. Once babies are 2” tall, pluck so there's just one per 12".
Where to Plant
Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun.
When to Plant
Spring, after last frost, or start inside 6 weeks earlier.
When to Expect Blooms
Blooms all summer.
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
Foliage is evergreen (leaves stay green through winter).
