These are excellent for containers. Their compact, upright growth habit makes them perfect for pots, window boxes, or small garden spaces where you want a pop of color.

They require full sun to perform their best. Aim for at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily to ensure strong stems and vibrant, consistent blooms.

Once established, they are quite resilient and handle heat and dry spells well. While they have average water needs, you won't need to baby them, though containers will always dry out faster than garden beds and require more frequent checks.

No, these are annuals. They will complete their life cycle in a single season, providing color from spring through summer, but they will not return the following year.

Both methods work well. Starting them indoors a few weeks before your last frost gives you a head start, but they are fast-growing enough that direct sowing in the spring once the soil has warmed is also very effective.

Space them 10 to 14 inches apart. This spacing allows for proper airflow, which helps keep the plants healthy and prevents issues with humidity or fungal growth.
