Rose Agrostemma

Rose Agrostemma (Agrostemma githago) - A graceful old-fashioned annual with delicate, silky stems and striking rose-pink flowers. Each bloom features five broad petals, often marked with subtle darker veins, and is framed by long, pointed green sepals that extend beyond the petals. The narrow, silvery-green foliage and airy growth habit give this flower a natural, meadow-like charm. Growing approximately 40-50 cm (16-20 inches) tall, Rose Agrostemma blooms throughout summer and its open flowers are also attractive to bees.
