Planting & Care

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover, as light aids germination. Keep moist and maintain a temperature of 65-70°F. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing 12-18 inches apart. Pinch back young plants to encourage bushier growth.

Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly every 4-6 weeks. Deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming. Tall varieties may benefit from staking in windy areas.
