White Lightning is one of the best Summer-performing osteos! Strong and weather-tolerant, it really stands up to heat…and that means three-season shelf life and all-Summer garden shows. You can grow White Lightning in any climate, as it’s on par with popular Voltage Yellow. The cheery white blooms are striking even when "asleep," with bright flashes from the yellow undersides.
