In the home landscape it can be grown in natural areas or areas of lawn that are mowed seasonally. It grows best in full sun with slightly moist roots, but will grow in part shade with drier soils.
Occasionally it can be found growing singly, or in small clusters of plants, along sidewalks, in flower pots, or in the lawn where previous plants had grown or seeds were dropped. Mowing in the late spring, when the plants seed heads are brown, will help to disperse the seeds and supply seeds for next year’s crop of toadflax. If you mow after the spring wildflowers have bloomed remember to mow so the seeds are blown, from the mower, into the areas you want new plants … not into paths or garden beds. I generally mow outwards in to keep my flower beds less weedy and keep the wildflower areas full of fresh seeds.
