    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    An absolute joy to grow! This carefree POWERHOUSE of an annual delivers a seemingly endless profusion of blooms! Hundreds of brilliant, see-it-from-space, long-lasting 1.5” "strawberry" flowers with little yellow "seeds" explode into your world from June to November on sturdy, upright branching stems that bounce in the breeze. Stays fresh and showy even in blazing heat and humidity (hear that Sacramento?). Perfect for a container, makes terrific cut flowers, fresh or dried. Tolerant of poor, clay soil but much better in good garden soil. Drought tolerant, deer resistant and self sows! May overwinter.
