Tried & tested by Sarah
Super productive variety
Easy to grow
This is my number one cut flower foliage plant, which forms the base of 80% of my mixed arrangements
You never tire of their brilliant acid-green flowers and bold, strong shapes. It is really a short-lived perennial, but it flowers best in its first year, so we treat it as a hardy annual. Cut with care and use gloves to avoid milky sap.
