Large, papery blooms with bright yellow centres in white, wine-red and bubblegum pink, appear non-stop throughout the summer and right up until the first frosts. Superb as border plants, 'Sonata Hot Pink Mixed' will also flourish in large pots - and their fine, feathery foliage is also attractive.
Garden care:
Pot up and grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can be planted outside in a well-prepared bed. Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and taller plants may need supporting with brushwood stems in exposed positions.
