✂️ Care
A compact and generous variety, perfect for sunny gardens, colorful borders, and containers. Plant in full sun to partial shade for abundant flowering and vibrant colors.
Regularly remove spent flowers to prolong the blooming period and encourage new flower production. Light pruning after the first flush of blooms stimulates a spectacular second autumn bloom.
Apply a light mulch around the base to maintain moisture and improve drainage. Once established, this hardy annual requires little maintenance and offers weeks of delicate and colorful flowers, ideal for fresh bouquets and floral arrangements.
