Nursery contributed plant descriptions

From South Africa comes this quite enchanting & very entertaining annual. Free flowering, it bears single, 1”, rose blooms with two yellow, heart-shaped eyes. Look closely & you’ll see the most evil little face - wearing a pink bonnet! Like a little vampire or a good likeness of the evil “Mojo Jojo” from the “Power Puff Girls.” Hold a flower up above your head & watch the two eyes light up. Cool! This fun, little creature grows about 12” tall & 15” wide. He likes decent soil & not too much water.
