Lovely creamy coloured blooms on dwarf, compact long-flowering plants. Use them to create more subtle effects and contrasts where a bright white is too harsh. A hardy annual flowering the same year. Prefers partial shade as flowers will fade in strong sunlight.
When to plant: Year round How to grow: Sow direct in the garden in clumps 5mm (quarter-inch) deep and 7-10cm (3-4in) apart. Later thin if necessary. Keep moist until seedlings emerge. Feed regularly with liquid fertiliser to promote flowering over a longer period. Cut back all spent flowers. Flowers: 8 weeks from sowing
