This stunning mix is the most unusual range of rose gold, blush, and champagne plumes that look as if they have been dusted with iridescent glitter. The stocky, heavily branching plants have dark ruby-red stems with cranberry-veined leaves that perfectly offset the antique-looking metallic flower heads.
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 36-42” inches tall.
Space 9-12 inches apart
NOTES
Pinch when 6-8” tall to encourage branching
