beautiful flower
Reviewed By: Phyllis Crihfield (Cassopolis, Michigan)
I have grown these flowers for several years. Sometimes they are fragile to get started, but when they start growing, they are unstoppable. Several of my co-workers have asked for seeds. I sent them to Gurneys.com

These were prevalent in midwest in farm gardens in the '50s. Never failed to facinate kids, especially dried inside in vases at great aunt's
