Basically this is a short-lived perennial and gardeners generally grow it as an annual or biennial. It is very easy to grow and can quickly take over your garden after seed germination. It bears huge single flowers in a range of dark and white bi-colors. It has a strong fragrance that is attractive to bees and butterflies alike.
