(HALLEY DWARF GLAD) You gotta love these short-stuff, stand alone Glads! 12-28” tall spikes of ivory flowers with golden throats, punctuated by streaks of carmine red! A rare and wonderful cultivar that is easy to grow in full warm sun, well drained soil and moist soil during the growing season; early summer bloomer. Tall enough for a vase but short enough to skip the staking, Halley will be your newest best friend!
