Once seedlings have several true leaves, transplant to individual pots or space them 18–24 inches apart in the garden.
Choose a location with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Water regularly during dry spells, especially during the first growing season. Apply a layer of mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. In late fall, cut back foliage after it dies back to prepare plants for winter.
