Description

Forming a clump of stiff, leafy stems, this valuable late-season plant bears heads of curiously-shaped rich pink flowers resembling gaping mouths, hence the common name "Turtle Head". This lovely flower makes a very useful addition to every garden, flowering from late summer when most others have finished, and right into autumn.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
