Whimsical and cute textured small globe shaped blooms atop a thin stem in warm and glowing salmony pink. The more you cut, the more they grow! 

Approximate Seeds per Packet: 50

Variety/Hardiness: Annual

Sunlight: Full Sun

Mature Height: 18″ - 28"

Germination: 5-14 days at 21-26°C

Sowing:

Transplant: Sow indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost, 1/8" deep. Transplant out after all threats of frost have passed.

Direct Seeding: Not recommended.

Care: No special care is required. Cut low and deep into the plant to encourage more branching when harvesting; pinching in the seedling stage is not necessary.

Harvesting:

Fresh: Harvest when stems feel stiff but before shedding pollen. Adding flower preservative in their water will prolong their vase life. 

Dried: Makes a great dried flower. Harvest when flowers are fully open (it is okay if pollen is present) and stems are stiff. Hang to dry in a dim location with ample air circulation.
