I think they're supposed to be sewn, most everywhere, in the fall. They then bloom the following spring from March through May. The seeds should still be fine this fall and perhaps a fall sewing will give you the best results.

I decided to buy some of the seeds at Home Depot last fall and planted them, in October, here in South Florida. They grew all winter and started blooming in mid March (pic attached). They're still blooming. They don't need much water and prefer to be slightly on the dry side. Give them lots of room, because the growth is slow at first, but then they take off real fast in late winter. I would guess each plant is 8-12" tall and 12-18" wide.
