They grow everywhere as a colorful annual, and have a tremendously long bloom season. They are also a good bedding item, and of course a mainstay of the cutting garden. The flower loves full sun or partial shade and appreciates deep, rich soil. Therefore, working in compost and other organics is helpful.
