Audray Pink Gomphrena Seed

Item #HSC-GOM-002-PKT

A cool lavender-pink gomphrena.

Audray Pink is one of the tallest, most upright globe amaranths, so it gives more usable stems from very even plants. Despite the name, the color leans lavender, a cool pink.

1½" blooms; taller and more even than QIS, though a little later to bloom. Also called globe amaranth.

Plants grow 18–28" tall and flower about 95–110 days from sowing. Open-pollinated.
