A succulent, ground hugging plant with prostrate red stems and cylindrical, bright green leaves. The gaily-coloured flowers, which look like crumpled silk, are carried in profusion throughout the Summer. Ideal for borders or rock gardens, or as pot plants. An annual, it requires a sunny position.
When to plant: Spring and early Summer
How to grow: Sow 5mm (quarter inch) deep in flowering position. Scatter thinly and rake in, just covering the seeds with soil. Keep moist. Feed with liquid fertiliser when buds appear. Water only when plants show signs of wilting. Flowers: All Summer
