Field Notes

Description:

Heavy blooming. 2 foot plants produce spikes of tubular flowers the first year, in sunset shades of peach, rose and orange, from June to October. Foliage is silvery, lacy contrasts flowers.

Notes:

Going this seeds indoors in February, I'm trying to get a head start on summer and see what butterflies and humming birds they attract. I planted these seed on Feb. 4, and the package estimated germination between 14-21 days.
