Orange this saturated fills a room before you place the arrangement. It replaces the original Sophia, a variety famous for color that did not reliably produce tubers, making this the version growers can actually keep. Cut flower farmers and home growers who want true orange without apricot or coral drift build their season around it.

How to Grow It
Pinch your plant once it has established its first few sets of leaves to encourage branching and multiply your stem count. The habit is naturally compact, so staking is optional in sheltered spots but worth doing in windy gardens. Cut regularly through the season to keep your plant producing into fall.
