Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Pink Zazzle' has knock-your-socks-off color to grab your attention. The large, hot pink to fuschia blooms are 3" wide and last several weeks in the garden or as cut flowers. It's a day-neutral bloomer so it flowers consistently from spring through fall performing best in warm weather and high light. In the same family as globe amaranth, the foliage and stems are covered with light fuzz and the plant is a well branched, prolific bloomer. We highly recommend 'Pink Zazzle' for a dazzling floral display throughout the summer months.
