This auction is for 15 seeds.
Guaranteed to grow. Attractive, tall feathery spikes of cream and biscuit shades will gently ruffle in the slightest breeze. Quick and easy to grow, adding height and interest to summer displays right through to the autumn, or used as an intriguing cut flower. Sow indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Will grow in any well-drained soil in full sun.
Sowing instructions:
Sow seed onto the surface of a good, free-draining, damp, seed sowing mix and lightly cover the seed with fine grade vermiculite or sowing mix. Place the seed container in a worm place at a daytime temperature of 20-25 C (68-77 F) and allow this to be reduced slightly overnight to aid germination. Germination usually takes 3-15 days. Do not exclude light at any stage as this helps germination.
Growing instructions:
Transplant seedlings, when large enough to handle into 7.5 cm ( 3 in) pots. Gradually acclimatize plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost, 12 in. apart.
I googled this to see what zones it is hardy in and got a range of answers. From what I can tell zones 3-10.
These are annuals.

I bought them from Spring Hill Nurseries and at the bottom of the package it says Thompson & Morgan Seedsmen Inc. I hope that helps.
