Ammobium
Ammobium grows best in sunny areas, in sandy, preferably well-drained soils. In full soil, it is undemanding of soil conditions and readily thrives in poor soils.
Water sparingly, only during extremely hot and dry periods. The plant is drought-tolerant, so it does not suffer from heavy watering.
For maximum decorative effect, apply complex mineral fertilizers. The first feeding is carried out after the seedlings planted in the ground have taken root. The second feeding is carried out after two weeks. Many gardeners use mullein infusion or some organic fertilizers instead of mineral fertilizers. When planting in the ground, apply compost or humus. Ammobium is grown as an annual plant. The height
of the bush ranges from almost 40 to 60 cm. The flowers are light, insignificant, about
1-1. 5 cm in diameter.
Blooming is abundant, beginning in June and lasting until
the autumn frosts. The plant is considered undemanding.

Ammobium is grown as an annual plant. The height
Ammobium is sown as seeds in March or April, in trays with a soft substrate. The seeds are germinated before covering with plastic wrap. After the seedlings emerge, the trays are moved to a sunny area. The grown seedlings are pricked out. The seedlings are watered according to the substrate”s drying point. In May, the seedlings are planted in open ground. When planting, space the plants apart by 20-30 cm. During the first period after planting, the Ammobium is watered properly. After the plants have a young appearance, watering is reduced. Uses
The plant is used in single plantings to create alpine mounds, as well as in mixed flowerbeds. It looks best surrounded by marigolds, coreopsis, and calendula. The plant is suitable for cut flowers and for making cold-blooded bouquets.
