We ship this item in Fall at the proper planting time for your hardiness zone.
Atop long, incredibly strong stems, dark burgundy-purple florets make a dramatic statement.
This heirloom variety's colour is especially dazzling in contrast to pale pink peonies or lighter-hued alliums. Putting on its best show in the sizzling heat of summer, it thrives in especially hot climates in well-drained soil. Grab a few of these long-lasting blooms to spice up a cut-flower display, or make an exceptional dried-flower arrangement. Wonderful perennializer.
