Growing Info:
Direct sow outside in March-May or Aug-Sep into well-drained, prepared soil, raked to a fine tilth, preferably in a sunny location. Sow finely in drills 30cm apart.

Deadheading will encourage more flowers. Leave some spent flowers on the plant if you would like it to self-seed. Otherwise pull out plant at the end of season and compost.
