I planted some in pots on the windowsill, ran out of space and jusr scattered the rest (can take the risk if they're free). Plants from pots are now flowering, broadcast ones are still pretty green froth. But I'll use them again - they're lovely.
Would be interested to know if they'll seed themselves - I always prefer self sustaining plants.
They can seed themselves but don't rely on it. They are so easy to do from seed, and some say you can collect your own. I haven't tried this and remember if you let them go to seed that's the end of the flowers, so get your timing right, just before frosts. Alternatively sacrifice a plant or two to seeds.Worth a try.
