Hardy Annual. This is one of the easiest and most forgiving annuals you can grow. Perfect for a child's garden. Can be grown from seeds sown under glass in early spring or you may plant nursery-grown seedlings. Flowers form a colorful blanket from the late spring to early autumn. Removing the faded flowers will promote new flower development. Some popular cultivars are 'Fairy Mixed', 'Flash Mixed' and 'White Pinnacle'.
