Easy to grow plants with beautiful flowers. Young leaves and flowers have a flavour like watercress and may be used in salads.
Free-blooming plants are covered with colourful, semi-double flowers carried well above the foliage. The compact, bushy plants are excellent for mass plantings, edging and in containers.

Direct-sow seeds in spring after danger of frost since plants are tender. Or start seed 4 weeks before outdoor planting to obtain young transplants. Choose a sunny location and a fertile soil that drains well, although too much nitrogen produces more foliage than flowers. Pick faded flowers to prolong bloom.
