Description
One of the most beautifully colored varieties we grow, this muddy-rose beauty has dark raspberry tips and center. A floral designers dream, the striking flowers are amazing in bouquets. Be sure to harvest this beauty when they are one-third of the way open, since the delicate petals are more prone to weather damage than most.

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.
