Saratoga™ Red Nicotiana

Saratoga Red is a compact, upright annual Nicotiana alata with red flowers. Its bushy form and upright blooms work well in spring bedding, small containers, and seasonal combinations. ## Growing Conditions The Saratoga series flowers in mid-spring and grows in part shade to full sun. Plants reach about 10–12 inches tall and wide. Give container-grown plants adequate root room and drainage, and water as needed while plants establish and in dry conditions. ## Garden Use Use Saratoga Red in groups for a concentrated color display or as a bright accent among other spring annuals. Its upright flowers add height while the compact plant fits smaller spaces. ## Sources [Syngenta Flowers Saratoga Red](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/emea/product/flower/70002851) · [Syngenta Americas annuals catalog, page 159](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/636494595/159) ## Maintenance Water newly planted starts and container plants when the growing mix begins to dry. Remove faded blooms to keep the planting neat, and replace the annual after the season.
