An eye-catching and unusual heritage variety bearing 6-inch flowers stamped with a bold white cross against a vivid scarlet background, the petals set off with frilly edges. It looks spectacular weaving through borders in drifts where its attractive seed-heads continue to provide interest long after the petals have fallen. The dried pods also lend structure to indoor vase arrangements. Height: 60cm (24"). Spread: 30cm (12").
