The long lasting bi-color lacecap flowers open green, mature to rosy pink while maintaining apple green centers, and eventually age to a full rose red regardless of the PH of the soil. The blooms last throughout summer and well into fall attracting butterflies, Best bloom in partial sun and rich, moist well-drained soils.
