Do you have a sunny area free? These colorful flowers are perfect for filling in gaps in your rock garden, flower bed edges, in the front garden or on the terrace. The plants thrive because they are low growing and thus insensitive to wind. They also grow well in window boxes and as potted plants. Just sow, rake and keep moist - then enjoy the richness of these simple but rugged country flowers. You can cut them for short bouquets or let them grown to the delight of the many butterflies, bumblebees and bees that are attracted to the richness of color. The carpet of flowers start blooming in June and continue up until strong frosts.
