About
Vibrant blooms cover the bronze foliage of this tender perennial. Superb heat tolerance! Perfect for combination pots, containers and window boxes, or makes a bold display when planted in large groups. In northern climates, treat as an annual; in frost-free areas, divide each spring. Prefers well-drained, humus-rich soil.
