  • Very well-branched, upright and strong-stemmed, these excellent landscape and garden performers double as a great backyard cut flower. 
  • Fast-blooming plants respond well to growth regulators applied for potted plant height and tighter umbels. 
  • Performs as a perennial in USDA Hardiness Zones 6a to 9b (-10 to 25°F/-23 to -4°C minimum temperature).
