    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Believed by many to be the most beautiful of all annuals, German Catchfly is a bit taller than our other “German Catchflys”. Grows 12-15" tall & wide. Bears multi-stemmed masses of phlox-shaped flowers, almost smothering the foliage for three months. This sweet variety boasts intense magenta to ruby red flowers that sway with the slightest breeze.
