Blooms from mid spring through mid summer. Plants grow 3 to 5 inches tall and spread out to a width of 4 inches. Likes dry soils. These semi-evergreen plants form a carpet of color in full sun to light shade. Surface sow- light needed for best germination, three weeks at F 70. Do not keep seedlings overly wet.
