Pink Bouquet Obedient Plant

Pink Bouquet is a rose-pink obedient plant whose upright flower spikes rise above green foliage in mid-to-late summer. Individual tubular flowers can be moved gently and often remain in the new position, while the plant itself may spread into a broad clump through underground stems. ## Growing Conditions Give it full sun or partial shade and allow room for mature growth. Published sizes vary with conditions: one grower lists about 90 cm tall by 40 cm wide, while a regional gardening account describes plants 3–4 feet tall. Pink Bouquet works well in a sunny border and its straight stems can be cut for arrangements. [Vanstone Nurseries](https://vanstoneplants.com/plants/P-PHYVPB/) lists its color, exposure, and size; [Michigan Gardener](https://www.michigangardener.com/plant-focus-obedient-plant/) describes the cultivar and explains how rich, cultivated soil encourages spread. ## Maintenance Use poorer soil if you want to slow vigorous growth, and lift and divide a spreading clump in spring every year or two. In partial shade or especially fertile soil, tall stems may need support; remove faded stems after flowering.
