Planting & Care

Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover completely as light aids germination. Maintain a temperature of 65-75°F (18-24°C) and keep the medium evenly moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 14-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions after the danger of frost has passed.

In the garden, choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during establishment, then reduce frequency as plants mature. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. In colder climates, treat as an annual or overwinter containers indoors in a bright, cool spot.
