Tropaeolum minus ‘Orchid Cream’

Description

Lush, mounding green plants with blooms whose color changes from cream-with-a-red-splash to fully-red from June to October.  The edible, peppery-flavored flowers also make an elegant garnish when placed on an hors d’oeuvres tray or cheese platter.  Grows 9-10 inches tall.  Full sun or part shade in hotter climates. Water sparingly.
