It is best to grow these seeds indoors in late winter utilizing peat pots and starter mix. You will want to sow the flower seeds on the surface and press them into the soil. The seeds need light to germinate so you definitely do not want to plant too deep. Keep flower seeds moist until germination. Do not let seeds dry out for extended periods of time s this will lower the germination percentage. If you want to be a little more risky, you may also sow the flower seeds directly outdoors. The seeds can be sown in the late fall, late winter, or spring. Planting in spring after frost season has passed is the least risky approach. Prepare the soil by loosening the top several inches, spread the flower seeds and lightly rake. Remember, don't plant too deep as the seeds needs light to germinate. Firm the soil by walking lightly over the area. After seedlings have begun to emerge, you will want to thin them so they are approximately 15 - 18 inches apart. For all your hard work, you will enjoy plants that will reach 32 - 40 inches in height and 12 inches in width. Peonies also make great companion plants.
