Sow seeds just 0.5 cm deep, either under cover in April for an earlier start, or direct outdoors from May once all frost has passed. Thin or transplant seedlings to 30 × 30 cm spacing in a sunny or lightly shaded spot with fertile, well-drained soil. Water regularly, feed occasionally, and deadhead spent blooms to keep the plant flowering right through until the first autumn frost.
