Description

Mixed Color Catchfly is an attractive cool-season annual appreciated for abundant rounded clusters of delicate star-shaped blossoms. This seed mixture includes pure white, soft pink and rich magenta blooms, densely arranged atop upright branching stems. Its characteristic sticky foliage earns it the name catchfly, developing into neat vertical clumps that add layered color and texture to spring landscapes. The plant thrives under mild weather, producing profuse blooms from late spring to early summer. Continuous intense summer heat will suppress flowering, making it a fantastic option to bring lively color to gardens before the arrival of hot temperatures.
Mixed Color Catchfly works beautifully in informal cottage borders, mass bedding, rock gardens and cool-season patio containers. The diverse color palette creates dynamic multi-hued displays and complements satin flowers, snapdragons and other spring flowering varieties. Blossom clusters offer readily available nectar, drawing native bees and small butterflies. Regular deadheading of faded flowers extends the bloom cycle, delivering weeks of vibrant mixed-color beauty with straightforward maintenance suitable for gardeners of all experience levels.
