Description
*Limit five per customer.* A bronze sport from ‘Cornel’, which is one of the most productive and reliable varieties we’ve ever grown, this new introduction is already on the Floret Favorites list. Plants reach 4 feet tall and produce long, strong stems perfect for cutting. Blooms are 4 inches across and feature warm, bronze petals that resemble an heirloom pumpkin. Hands down, one of the best orange varieties on the market. Ball-shaped flowers are weather resistant and last an extremely long time in the vase.

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.
