Gomphrena Purple is a beautiful heirloom variety known for its vibrant purple blooms that last throughout the season. These non-GMO seeds produce compact, sturdy plants with globe-shaped flowers that attract pollinators and are perfect for adding color to your garden or for fresh cut arrangements. Gomphrena is easy to grow and maintains its color even after drying, making it ideal for creating long-lasting floral displays. This heat-loving annual thrives in warm-season gardens, typically flowering 60-70 days after transplant. Direct seed after frost danger passes or start indoors 6-8 weeks before your last spring frost for earlier blooms. Gomphrena Purple prefers full sun and well-draining soil; once established, plants are remarkably drought-tolerant and require minimal fertilization, making them an excellent choice for low-maintenance landscapes. The dense, rounded flower heads reach 12-18 inches tall and bloom continuously from mid-summer through fall frost, providing reliable color when many other annuals fade. Each packet contains 50 seeds with strong germination rates. Beyond garden display, Gomphrena Purple excels as a cut flower and dried flower crop. Harvest stems when flowers are fully formed but still vibrant; they dry quickly with minimal color loss, retaining their rich purple hue for months in arrangements, wreaths, and crafts. The flowers also attract butterflies and other beneficial pollinators, supporting garden ecology while delivering ornamental value. Whether grown in borders, containers, or dedicated cutting beds, this versatile heirloom variety delivers consistent performance and extended seasonal interest with minimal input.
