Amongst fiery orange and yellow flowers appears a surprise - delicately ruffled, soft orange blooms with a delightful and unique tinge of pink. Wonderfully easy to grow in the border or containers, naturalising if required and a delightful cut flower too. Flowers summer. Height 45-60cm (18-24in).
Best sown in spring where they are to flower or late summer/early autumn for overwintering. Sow 1cm (½in) deep in rows 30cm (12m) apart in well cultivated soil which has been well raked.
For winter/early spring flowering pot plants in a cool greenhouse or conservatory, sow in late summer/early autumn.
