Sowing: Sow seeds in late fall or as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. Plant just below the surface, lightly compacting the soil. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which usually occurs within 10-20 days. Do not attempt to move seedlings, since they resent having their roots disturbed.

Growing: Water seedlings occasionally until they become established. Mature plants tolerate drought fairly well, though they appreciate watering in dry weather. Do not move or divide the plants, since they do not transplant well. Deadhead faded blossoms for additional blooming. If seeds are not required, cut the plant back after blooming has finished. This plant often self-sows, and is highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and birds.
