The mix contains all ColorBloom series colours except Bicolor Red White. ## Garden Use This F1 series is designed for quart-sized containers and produces a compact plant about 4–6 inches tall and 6–8 inches wide. It suits patio pots, sunny indoor displays, and the front of a seasonal border. PanAmerican Seed lists flowering from early spring through winter.

Remove faded flower stems to keep the plant tidy and make room for new blooms. In cold climates, treat it as a seasonal container or garden plant; overwinter established plants in a bright, cool, frost-free place.
