not red

This plant is NOT red, but a light pink/lavendar. They are pretty, just be warned. Also, my plants grow to about 40+ inches tall - so plant in the back of your beds. If you are in a windy area the stalks will fall over and turn brown. Make sure to clip the stalks after they are done blooming and they'll rebloom.

Called Gurney's last year because the color did not match what I ordered, which was red. Mine bloomed a light lavender. Gurney was gracious and sent a replacement order last fall. Again, this summer, I still don't have carmine red blooms, instead they are a purple. The foliage is nice, but if you want red blooms, do NOT order this item. You will be disappointed like me.
