A riot of colour on 6 to 12 inches stems with silky 2-3 inch wide cups in a mixture of Red & Orange shades through to white flowers, above mounds of attractive feathery grey-green foliage. Loves hot, dry areas and poor soils. Excellent for seeding large areas and filling in the gaps in the herbaceous border. Blooms spring into summer, especially in cool weather. Great fillers in flower beds and containers.
