Cultivate soil and firm over seed, keeping it moist. Nick or file seed coat lightly, or soak seeds in water overnight before sowing.

Remove old flowers. Much to preserve moisture, cool roots and to protect from severe winters. Store extra seeds in a cool dry place. Heat and moisture severely reduce germination.
