Wonderful!
I didnt get very good germination but this might be because i planted them in very poor soil in the middle of june and it was hot!! But i did get quite a few plants that popped up!! They are growing very well despite the poor soil (caliche with a little bit of bokashi buried in) and mulch on top. I love to pull the young leaves to snack on and looking forward to collect the seeds. They also seem to do well even in very dry soil. I definitely recommend for hot and dry places.

Sow directly
Tried to start indoors twice, very poor germination. Tried a third time, showing directly outdoors when the weather warmed 100 germination.
