seeds
(95 days) Open-pollinated. Annual. Petite pink flowers on thin stems mature into airy glistening bronze-to-burgundy sprays of teensy seedpods high above the lush foliage. For a whimsical late-season bouquet filler, harvest after the small pods have formed, but before they begin to dry and shatter. It’s possible to preserve them for dry arrangements, but they will be quite delicate. Easy to grow, but takes a long season. Started early indoors (70–85°, surface sow) and transplanted into favorable conditions, the large mounding plant can grow to be 32–40" and just as wide. Related to purslane, it has glossy succulent edible leaves—may be worth consideration for as an edible landscape plant. Native to the southern U.S. About 3,100 seeds/g. ① NEW!
