They are so cheery and bright, I won't be without them! For some reason they don't reseed for me like lots of gardeners report, so I save seed from them and surface sow later. I've had the best luck sowing in February and March in my zone, but I'm not sure what's best further south. I used to think they needed cool temps to germinate, but now I believe lack of competition and plenty of moisture while they're tiny is why that time of year works for me.
