Vivid red, fragrant flowers suited to borders. Incredibly long-lasting and durable. Hardy perennial and easy to grow. Profuse tight clusters of scarlet to crimson flowers on tall, strong plants. And the petals are edible! Grows to approximately 2 feet with a spread of 10-12 inches. Requires only partial sun, with average soil and water requirements. Cold-hardy. The slightly spicy scent of the blooms helps attract butterflies and hummingbirds, though plants are deer-resistant.
