Gomphrena ‘Fireworks’

We do not include many true annuals in our catalog but we were so impressed with Fireworks Globe Amaranth we had to add it. Introduced in 2009 by Burpee, this tall heat-tolerant continuous-flowering plant has been a big hit in variety trials all across the US and will end up being a popular plant seen in lots of gardens. Fireworks has strong stems with no wind problems and is constantly loaded with bloom clusters of hot pink, highlighted by sparks of yellow. It can even handle a little neglect and dryness once rooted into beds, borders and containers. What more could we ask?
