Agrotechnics: the plant is undemanding to soils. Quite frost-resistant. Open sunny places are preferable for planting. Does not tolerate excessive moisture and prolonged drought. Sowing seeds can be done in spring or autumn (in this case, the plants bloom faster) - immediately into open ground. With autumn planting, shelter for the winter is necessary for the seedlings that have appeared. If you grow the plant by seedling method, then sowing is carried out in greenhouses in March. Seedlings appear on the 4-10th day. Planting in place is carried out in May, maintaining a distance of 15-20 cm between plants. It is very important that the crops are sparse, otherwise abundant flowering of plants will be difficult and they may be affected by diseases. Plants bloom on the 40-50th day after sowing. Periodically, feeding is carried out with a complete complex fertilizer.
Sowing: in mid-April for seedlings or in mid-May in open ground. Seedlings appear in 4-5 days. Seedlings are planted in May-June according to the scheme 10x10 cm.
Care: the plant is unpretentious, photophilous and drought-resistant, but gratefully responds to watering and feeding.
Flowering: occurs in 40-45 days and lasts until late autumn. When flowering weakens, seed shoots are cut off.
