Description

This soft cotton candy pink, ball-shaped bloomer looks wonderful both in the garden and the vase. The sweet knee-high plants are covered in pastel flowers all season long. This particular variety has a tendency to drop its petals once flowers reach full maturity, so harvest when blooms are still young, about one-third of the way open.

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.
