✂️ Care

A compact and prolific variety, perfect for sunny gardens, delicate borders, and containers. Plant in full sun to partial shade for abundant blooms and vibrant champagne yellow hues.

Regularly remove spent flowers to extend the blooming period and encourage the production of new flowers. A light trim after the first flush of blooms stimulates a spectacular second fall blooming.

Apply a light mulch at the base to retain moisture and improve drainage. Once established, this hardy annual requires little maintenance and offers weeks of delicate, bright flowers, ideal for fresh bouquets and floral arrangements.
