Great for cutting, the medium ball-shaped flowers bloom abundantly all season long on tall stems. A must grow!

Harvesting/Vase Life
Cut when blooms are three-quarters of the way open, but not overly ripe. To do this, check the back of each flower head, looking for firm and lush petals versus papery or slightly dehydrated ones. Place into water with hydrator, or sear stem ends by placing into 160-180* water and allow to cool for 1 hour. Blooms will last 5-6 days.
