Put it next to anything solid and the whole arrangement gets interesting. The fuchsia and purple brushstrokes shift intensity bloom to bloom, so your bunches never look like they came from the same plant. Flower farmers and collectors grow it for straight bunches and gift bouquets. It was bred in United Kingdom by Les Jackson in 2011.

Growing Hillcrest Jonathan

Give your plant full sun and stake it early, before the stems get heavy. Pinch after several sets of leaves to encourage branching and more stems per plant. It grows to around knee-to-hip height, so leave room to work around it. Feed regularly through summer for the strongest bloom count.

Spacing
Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking
Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
