Gomphrena globosa 'Purple Dots'
Gomphrena globosa 'Purple Dots' is a tough, heat-loving annual producing masses of rounded, clover-like flowerheads in vivid purple. The papery blooms are held above neat green foliage, creating a bright and cheerful display throughout summer.
Flowering continuously from early summer until the first autumn frosts, 'Purple Dots' provides a long season of reliable colour. Its durable blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects.
Ideal for sunny borders, bedding displays, patio containers and cutting gardens, this easy-to-grow variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, it is drought tolerant, while the flowers are excellent for both fresh arrangements and drying.
