Gomphrena

Gomphrena and Zinnias

Our featured flower of the month has proven to be one of the most successful annuals I have planted.  The Gomphrena yields one inch blooms on tall sturdy stems that bring joy from late spring until late fall.  Gomphrena is full sun and makes a great addition to any cut floral arrangement. Start seeds in rich, well draining soil for blooms that should reach heights of 18 to 20 inches.  The Gomphrena pictured below remind me of fuchsia colored raspberries.  Cheers
