What a pleasure it is to have these flowers growing on the farm. The original seeds came to us from our local CSA farm basket Coop
Pied de Céleri, a farm I know well as I worked there. They have a cut flower section to their basket offer and at the end of the season I guerrila harvest the left over deadhead seeds. I have been growing them out for 3 years now on the farm. Such a beautiful showy ocean of colors.
Sow: Start indoor 2 to 4 weeks before last frost, transplant out after last frost. Seeds that have fallen can and will reseed themselves. Harvest: All season long while the flowers are healthy. [icons]
