Description

*Limit three per customer.* One of the loveliest varieties we have ever grown, this large-flowered treasure produces an abundance of 8-10 inch soft watermelon colored blooms brushed with buttercream on long, strong stems. If ‘Café au Lait’ had a sister, it would surely be ‘Break Out’.

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.
