The Story
Imagine these large, (4"–5") rosy-chocolate-colored blossoms fluttering over an arbor or trellis against the sparkling blue sky!

A vigorous vine to 10', blooming midsummer to frost.

Days to Emerge: 5–15 days
Seed Depth: ½"
Seed Spacing: A group of of 3 seeds every 6" – 12"
Thinning: When 2" tall thin to 1 every 6" – 12"
