A truly lovely annual plant for sun to partial shade depending on your location. It begins to flower at about 3" (7.6 cm) tall and does not stop until the frost kills it in late fall. Its very showy with a wide range of colors on straight stems. It is loved by hummingbirds, butterflies and other pollinators. Can easily be grown in containers to brighten patios and decks. Needs very little maintenance once established for a whole season of color. Its also entirely edible when cooked it tastes like asparagus. Unfortunately the deer and rabbits think so too.
