Direct sow after last frost. Or, sow indoors 4-6 weeks earlier, then transplant into average garden soil in a mostly sunny location. Too much fertility may result in more foliage and fewer blooms. Pinch off spent flower heads for continued blooming until frost, or let some go to seed to save for next season.
