8. They'll grow

They're hardy like weeds.
Soil, water & sunshine and they give you plenty from spring through the summer

They'll fit in with long grass and give it some color

If the grass is too thick you might pull some of it to give them a better chance.

They tend to need a little soil - you probably don't need to add any as you can work them in with a rake. Toss a little water on them to start the germination and discourage the birds from eating them.

If you plant more in 4 weeks and maybe again 8 weeks, you'll extend the bloom time if you want.
