Large, spurred flowers with clear colors of white, lavender, yellow, deep red and pink are borne on 2 1/2' plants. The strikingly beautiful blooms make good cut flowers. They require partial shade or full sun, along with well-drained soil. The colors, however, cannot be chosen. -Holland Wildflower Farm
