Germination: These plants are easy to grow. Sprinkle seeds outdoors on raked ground (after the danger of frost is past), water in, and keep moist until germination. If you are seeding a large area, sometimes it's good to spread seeds before a rainy period, to help keep the soil moist during the germination period. These seeds can also be started early indoors, and planted outside after the danger of frost is past.
