Big, bright, showy blooms for a real, long lived, splash of colour in the summer border and as cut flowers. Easily grown. A half hardy annual, flowering the same year. Prefers a sunny position and well-drained soil. Large vibrant, double blooms like flattened domes with a 'crisp' texture, guaranteed to be patted!
When to plant: Spring and early Summer How to grow: Sow thinly, 0.25in (0.5cm) deep, in rows 10in (25cm) apart. Keep moist. Once seedlings are large enough to identify, thin out to 10in (25cm) between plants. Remove dead flower heads to prolong flowering. Flowers: Summer and Autumn
