Annual. Beautiful round clover-like 1" flowers on 2' stems perfect for drying. Also enjoyable as bedding plant. We’ve chosen for earliness, floriferousness, compact habit and good stem length.
Culture: Easily grown in any soil, likes hot sun, blooms prolifically. Tolerates dry weather and some frost. Chill seed 4–6 weeks at 40°, then start indoors at 60–70° for best germination. Germination is erratic; can take from 7–30 days. Grow on at 55–60°. Do not overwater. Transplant in 8–12 weeks, spacing at 12–18".
All flower seeds are open-pollinated except where noted.
Days in parentheses after a variety indicate days to first bloom.
Almost all the flowers we list are open- pollinated and easy to save seed from. Some types cross readily, but who cares! Save the seeds, plant them, and be surprised.
These flowers are especially easy to save seed from: bachelor’s buttons, calendula, cerinthe, cosmos, love-in-a- mist (nigella), nasturtium, poppy, strawflower, sunflower, sweet pea and tithonia.
