Hardy Perennial. This is the best compact cultivar available in this species and has been grown and appreciated by gardeners for quite some time. These hardy perennial plants form a low mound and are covered with red blooms, tipped in yellow throughout most of the summer and fall. Plants are easily grown from seed and can be sown 8 weeks before the last frost. Germination is rapid and plants develop quickly. This is a rewarding choice for beginning and experienced gardeners alike.
