    Usually the flowers fall off when they’re dead and the seed heads form behind.
    have you planted it out in the garden and given a lots of water. 
    They're not suited to being treated as pot plants. 
    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    The seeds are already forming, the green blobby bits where the flowers have fallen off. When they turn brown,  you can sow them where you want them next year. They germinate better if sown fresh and not wait until next spring.

    Thanks for the advice fidget a few people have asked for seeds. Lyn it’s in the garden in a large galvanised bucket has flowered beautifully for weeks hubby couldn’t believe I had paid good money for what he considered a weed but even he said it was quite pretty.
