Plant details
This unusual-looking annual makes an interesting addition to summer bedding schemes. It produces long, lime-green tassels which dangle almost to the ground. Larger plants may need staking to support the weight of their blooms. Sow seeds indoors in early spring and plant out once the danger of frost has passed in May or June.
