Annual plant 20-40 cm high, with delicate, branched shoots ending with crested flowers in white, pink, purple and lilac shades. It blooms from July to September. Particularly useful as a bedding plant, for borders, cut flowers and pots.
It thrives in fertile, well-drained but moist soil in full sun. Afternoon shade is advisable in very warm climates.
This delicate, fragile-stemmed annual is best in a sheltered cool border or container; in mildest climates it performs well in the mixed border. In hot climates consider fall planting, although this light-sensitive plant may flower more sparsely in the short days of winter. Flowers are excellent for cutting.
