These beautiful annual flowers LOVE the FULL SUN and thrive in the summer heat! They produce colorful burgandy and green leaves on multi branching stems, followed by beautiful 4"-5" soft, pink, feathery plumes produced in profusion on bushes that reach 4 feet in the South. Very easy to grow, low maintenance and a definite showstopper in your garden! Very attractive to butterflies and bees! Blooms all summer to frost. Excellent as a potted plant.
Press seeds lightly into soil, just barely covering them. Needs warmth 25-28C (75-80F) and light to germinate. Germinates in 14 - 21 days
