| Description: |
Proven Winners introduces
three new nemesias to join old favorites like ‘Blue Bird’ and ‘Compact
Innocence.’ Bred in Germany and England, these sweet scented
blooms fill the air with their fragrant aroma when the sun hits
the flowers. They scoff at cold weather and keep blooming right
through frosts in early spring and late fall. They have a compact
form with strong upright flowers. They’re superb in planters
or baskets where you can catch wind of the refreshing fragrance.
New colors are: Safari™ Plum, Safari™ Pink, & Blue
Lagoon. |
