Bright Lights Red displays large red flowers all season. Mounded habits really hold the flowers up for great flower presence. Brights Lights are great in both landscapes and containers.
Plant Powered Packaging by Proven Winners: Introducing the full annual Eco+Grande collection! The Eco+Grande is a game changing Plant Container made from plants! This compostable container is made from starchy renewable plants like corn, switch grass and sugar beets grown in the United States. The Eco+Grande has nutrients built into the wall of the container that helps plants grow bigger and faster all season, if planted in the ground. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product.
8-12 inches tall and wide at maturity
Plant in part to full sun (4+ hours daily)
Annual except in zones 9-11
Care: Deadheading is not necessary for continuous bloom because plants will "bury their dead" (new flowers will quickly cover old flowers). Bright Lights do not like having wet feet and will react badly to constantly wet soil. Be sure to allow the soil in containers to dry on top before watering and only plant in beds with good drainage. While it shouldn't be necessary you can trim your plants at any time. Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant food.
