These old fashioned, cottage garden flowers have long, wine-red tassels of bloom. The dangling ropes of tiny burgundy blossoms have a wonderful texture, like soft chenille. These easy to grow, big-framed plants thrive even in poor soil and hot conditions and reach 0.91-1.22 m tall, adding rich colour and drama to the garden. Branches of their colourful tassels make riveting and decorative vase flowers.
