Thank you Westi - they grew really easily from seed. I've got them growing up through the shrubs, as they are quite tall and seem to flower right at the ends of the branches.

Is it bad if I overwater them?
I've heard some book of ra play positive reviews lately. You can find them right there. I liked them a lot. I hope to read more.

Yes, it would be bad to overwater them - but, saying that, I grew them in the flower borders this year and we had some really sodden rainfilled days, and they really thrived, so I think they're a quite forgiving annual. They'll die off in the winter and you'll need to resow seeds in the spring. That's what I do. I've saved some of the seeds from this summer's flowers and I'll sow them in the spring and hopefully some will germinate.
