Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly in the garden after the danger of frost has passed. Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; do not cover deeply as light aids germination. Keep soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Once established, water sparingly and allow soil to dry between waterings. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued bloom. Divide clumps every 2-3 years to maintain vigor.
