A fiery variety of Tickseed that will add drama and long-lasting blooms to your summer and autumn flower beds!
- From late June until September, and abundance of bright red daisy-like flowers, sometimes tipped with yellow, are produced on wiry branching stems. Regular deadheading will prolong the flowering time later into the autumn.
- Its finely cut green foliage adds a feathery, delicate texture, and forms a dense compact mound that gets covered in flowers.
- Best suited to a full sun location with well draining soil, as it dislikes areas that get too wet, particularly in the winter months. Can tolerate dappled shade too. It is quite drought resistant once established. A reliable addition for long-lasting colour in pots, mixed perennial and shrub borders, prairie-style planting, coastal gardens and rockeries. It also makes for a very good cut flower!
- The flowers will attract a wide range of bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
- Height and Spread approx. 30-50cm x 30-50cm.
- Supplied in a 9cm pot
