This old favorite is excellent combined with other flowers or bulbs, and can be used also as edging, in rock gardens or in mass plantings. Culture: Sow seeds outdoors as soon as ground can be cultivated. Since plants bloom so quickly, there is little advantage to starting them indoors. Plants tolerate both dry and wet locations. Pick old flowers to reduce the number of volunteer seedlings, and to promote side branching. Plants will often self sow.
