Description
Long draping ropes of wine-red flowers hang from the sturdy stocks of this romantic old-fashioned annual. Thrives even in hot, dry locations. Lovely addition to bouquets. A dramatic accent to any garden.
Select a sunny location with average soil. Plant outdoors in late spring after soil has completely warmed. Keep soil evenly moist and well weeded when plants are young. Great in pots and baskets since plants will remain quite small when their roots are restricted.
