Pretty in Pink™ Improved Bidens ferulifolia

Pretty in Pink™ Improved is an early-flowering Bidens ferulifolia selected for bright pink flowers and a well-branched plant that works in mixed containers and sunny borders. It belongs to Danziger’s TIMELESS™ collection, which is bred for early, abundant flowering and continued bloom into summer. ## Growth and placement The [Danziger cultivar page](https://www.danzigeronline.com/catalog/annuals/timeless-collection-pretty-in-pink-imp/) lists Pretty in Pink Improved as upright, medium in growth intensity, heat tolerant, pollinator friendly, and suitable for hanging baskets and landscape use. The [Mast Young Plants catalog](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/802025677) describes the commercial selection as trailing and gives a grower height of 10–14 inches; stems may grow upright or trail over a container edge depending on culture. The [Royal Horticultural Society Bidens profile](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/27935/bidens-ferulifolia/details) recommends full sun and moist but well-drained soil for the species, while noting that species-level size can be much broader than a compact cultivar. ## Maintenance Give plants a bright location and use a free-draining mix. Check baskets and containers often during warm weather, watering when the surface begins to dry. The breeder notes this selection is heat tolerant and pollinator friendly; trim stems if they become untidy, but routine heavy pruning is not needed for a seasonal display.
