Celosia - Limonata from Floret

$7.00

This beautiful pale creamy lime variety was teased out of a mix of Pampas Plume types. Plants have a vigorous branching habit, thrive in the heat, and produce an abundance of long, wispy chartreuse spires that add a freshness to arrangements.

HARVEST

Harvest once flower heads reach desired size, but before they go to seed. Strip 80 percent of the foliage off during harvest. Do not put in the cooler. Expect a vase life of 10 to 14 days. Flowers can also be dried for later use. To dry, hang freshly cut stems upside down in a warm, dark place for 2 to 3 weeks or until they are firm to the touch.

GROWING

Full Sun

Grows 42-60” inches tall.

Space 9-12 inches apart

NOTES

Pinch when 6-8” tall to encourage branching
