This variety was introduced by Jelitto Perennial Seeds in 1993 and has been grown successfully in trials throughout the United States and Europe.
Plants produce flat heads of tightly clustered flowers.
The flowers attract butterflies and can also be dried for use as everlastings. Flowering can be extended for a longer period if plants are cut back to 4-6 inches above ground level at midseason. Plants should begin to reflower in five to seven weeks. Avoid placing plants in moist locations outdoors. They prefer infertile, well-drained soils in areas receiving full sun.
