The intense deep burgundy flowers look like velvet and sit on top of dark green, bronze-tinted foliage, and attract bees like a magnet. This is a very versatile plant that will look equally at home mixed with grasses in a prairie style setting, or jostling for attention in a cottage garden. Try mixing it with lime green flowers for an impressive but shocking combination - not for the faint hearted! Get set for a long flowering period, especially if you keep deadheading the spent blooms. Alternatively cut a few stems when about a third of the flowers are open and they will last for ages inside. This is a short-lived perennial, which is usually grown as an annual, but if grown in a sunny spot with well drained soil it will usually last a few years.Garden Care: To collect seeds, and guarantee new stock, allow the seedpods to dry on the plant and then break them open to gather the bounty.
