Globe Amaranth 'Ping Pong Purple' 4 Inch

Gomphrena globosa

This whimsical annual develops a plethora of tufted, globular, magenta-purple flowers on long green stems and thin green foliage. Gomphrena is a long blooming annual that performs well in hot, humid conditions, is attractive to pollinators, and makes excellent cut and dried flowers. They make easy-care filler plants combined with sun loving Petunias, Calibrachoa, Lantana, sunflowers, and your favorite spilling vines. Grow in sunny areas, well-drained, amended soil or containers. Feed with a slow-release fertilizer during the growing season per label instructions. Deadhead and trim as needed to maintain better blooming and a tidy habit. Mulch 2" to suppress weeds, retain moisture, and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
