Each packet contains approximately 100 seeds.

Planting and Growing Tips:
This popular cottage garden flower grows easily in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist — not wet — well drained soil. Direct sow 1/4 inch deep in prepared beds after temperatures have warmed and keep moist. May also be started indoors in peat pots — plants do NOT transplant well. Thin seedlings 2- to 4-inches apart and provide support if necessary. Spread a nice layer of mulch around plants to conserve moisture, improve aesthetics and prevent weeds.

Note: To improve germination success, place seeds in a small amount of moist soil and store in your refrigerator crisper for several weeks prior to planting.
