Notes

Stunning display for about 3 weeks. Many colours and bicolours available. Very drought tolerant. Large tap root means it does not like being moved. May self seed. After bloom, cut back foliage for regrowth as it becomes unsightly. Excellent heat resistance, moderate growth rate. Fuzzy, prickly Foliage
