An easy to grow annual that attracts bees and butterflies, and blooms well into the fall. The long stems make for nice bunching as well. Direct sow in the garden after the last frost, sprinkling into a prepared bed, barely covering. Can be slow to germinate, but makes up for it with quick growth and blooming. Generally, a low maintenance plant. Can also be started inside for earlier blooms. From Just Another Weed Patch.
