Description
*Limit one per customer.* The true name for this special variety has eluded us for years so we nicknamed it Fruit Punch, until a customer finally shared its true name ‘NTAC Mia Li’ this past summer. The medium small flowers of this garden gem are beautiful and an unusual blend of peach, pink, and gold. The blooms are almost iridescent and look incredible in both arrangements and in the garden.

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.
