Picture the softest imaginable blush, warmed from within by a honeyed orange glow that shifts with the light. That interplay between petal tip and base is something no two blooms quite repeat in the same way. This is the variety farmer florists in the know have been quietly building their cutting gardens around.

How to Grow It
Plant your tubers in full sun and give them consistent moisture. This variety rewards attentive watering with vigorous growth and generous stem production. Pinching early encourages a bushier plant and more lateral branches, which translates to a better cutting yield over the season. Stake promptly, as the plant reaches a good height and the bloom-laden stems benefit from support in windy sites. Deadhead regularly to keep the plant producing through the season.
