Fast-growing annual to 8-12” tall x 8-12” wide. This eye-catching variety forms a dense mound of narrow, deep bluish-green foliage accented with an abundance of large, showy, straw-like, orange-centered yellow flowers that appear spring through fall. Well-suited as an accent, in beds and borders, or as a colorful container or hanging basket specimen. Attracts butterflies and bees, and the cut flowers are great for dried flower arrangements. Prefers regular watering in a well-drained soil and thrives in a full to partial sun exposure.
