Growing Guide at a Glance

Germination typically occurs in 10–20 days when soil temperatures run 60–70 F. For best results, surface sow outdoors in early spring or start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Transplant into prepared garden beds or larger pots with care.

To maintain vigor, space plants 12–24 inches apart and provide full sun with well-drained soil. Deadheading can extend blooming from late summer into early fall. Mature plants may self-seed gently and can be divided every 2–3 years to refresh vigor.

Ideal Uses and Garden Fit

• Native landscapes, wildflower meadows, and wildlife-friendly gardens.
• Containers and border displays that benefit from a tall, upright habit up to 24 inches.
• Low-water, drought-tolerant beds suitable for USDA zones 3–10.
