   • Outdoor Sowing: Directly sow seeds outdoors after the last frost date.
   • Indoor Sowing: For earlier blooms, start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
   • Planting Depth: Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in well-draining soil.

3. Germination:

   • Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
   • Temperature: Maintain a temperature of 70-75°F (21-24°C) for optimal germination.
   • Germination Time: Seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days.

4. Transplanting:

   • Seedlings: If started indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and they have at least two sets of true leaves.
   • Spacing: Space plants 6-12 inches apart, depending on desired coverage.

Care and Maintenance:

• Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods. Regular watering is important to maintain healthy growth.
• Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and maintain a tidy appearance.
• Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and keep the soil temperature stable.
• Pruning: Trim back leggy growth to promote a bushier plant and extend the flowering season.
