Sowing instructions

Scatter seed thinly over raked soil and press down lightly. Water gently and keep moist until germination. For larger areas, mix seed with sand to aid even distribution. Thin seedlings if overcrowded. Successional sowings can extend the flowering period. Allow plants to self-seed for natural continuity in following years.

 

Grow and maintenance

Plant in full sun or partial shade in free draining soil. Water regularly while establishing, then moderately. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave seed heads to support wildlife and natural reseeding. Minimal feeding is required. Cut back in late autumn or leave stems standing for overwintering insects.
