Description
Purple Queen Cleome
Cleome loves the long, warm days of summer. It reaches 3-6 feet tall and blooms continuously from midsummer until frost. The perfect annual for a tall summer hedge in either sun or partial shade. Burgundy-purple flowers are spiky, open and form round clumps. Packet is 0.40g.
Planting
Choose a warm, sunny location. For transplants, start seeds indoors two weeks before last frost date. Keep soil evenly moist until plants are established. Harden off seedlings by setting tray outdoors during the day, bringing in at night. Transplant outdoors after nights have warmed. May be sown directly outdoors after last frost.
Note
Mature Plants are quite drought tolerant and rarely need to be fertilized.
