Very hardy and easy to grow. Produces an abundance of beautiful double flowers in red, pink, white and blue. A favorite for cut flowers. Great in dry areas.
Select a sunny location with average soil. Plant outdoors after all danger of frost. May be started indoors three to four weeks early, but they are very easy to grow when started directly in the garden or pot. Keep soil evenly moist and well weeded while plants are young.
