Growing Info
Harvesting: For longest vase life, harvest in the morning, choosing buds that are about half open. Change vase water frequently.
Special Care: May require staking, especially if plants are not getting enough sun. Plants may get mildew in part shade; full sun and proper spacing will hinder mildew. To extend bloom season, increase size of existing flowers, and prevent reseeding, remove spent flowers. Successive sowings will provide a more continuous bloom period.

I love ordering seeds, and even looking at them organized in a box, just wish I'd get them planted so I'd have a picture to show off.

I actually forgot that I planted the seeds and the other day I was walking in my garden and there were the gorgeous white flowers. I will definitely buy more of these seeds.

I planted the entire packet of seeds, unfortunately none of the seeds sprouted. A little disappointed I was looking forward to them.
