Great yield with little care even in less than optimal conditions
Grew three successive waves of these in 2021 in my small home garden. Foliage made a nice border. My growing conditions- They were in full sun spring and fall, shaded somewhat by nasturtiums in summer. Zone 6, soil very clayey with old rotting tree roots to contend with. Drip watering from my rain barrel.
