Notes

Planted in small pots on south-facing balcony. We planted these out of curiosity. The leaves are edible and the plants were reasonably pretty. We didn't do anything with the seeds, and retired the plants at the end of the summer.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
