Candytuft, Umbellata Mix

Annual for sun. A fast growing annual excellent for cutting. Flowerets 1 1/2″ (3.75 cm.) across, purples, light and deep pinks, and white, centered by a tiny dark brown eye. Easy to grow; keep faded flowers cut, for more blooms. Sow seed in early fall if successive sowings are made. Non-genetically engineered seeds.

Culture: Well-drained soil, tolerates poor soil. Does best in full sun. In warmer regions, often self-sows.
