Sowing: Sow these seeds directly into the ground during springtime, as they prefer warm soil for optimal germination. Plant them just below the surface and ensure the soil is lightly watered until germination, typically within 7-10 days. Note that these seedlings do not transplant successfully.

Growing: Follow these instructions for the best results: Regularly water seedlings until they are established, but be careful not to overwater. In dry weather, occasional watering will help them thrive, but mature plants can also withstand some drought. To encourage bushiness, pinch off the growing stems and deadhead to prolong blooming. For optimal growth, this plant prefers rich soil and may benefit from light fertilization. It is also attractive to butterflies and bees.

Harvesting: Select opened flowers, remove lower foliage, and immediately place in water.
