Monkey Flower Magic White Blotch Hybrid
Great for containers, too, offering LOTS of blooms over a long season!
The Magic series is by far the first Monkey Flower to bloom each year, with masses of showy 1¾- to 2-inch blooms of frosty-white with bold daubs and splashes of burgundy. The soft, satiny feel of the petals and their wide-open trumpet shape may remind you of Petunias, but the color intensity and markings are more like Pansies! (They make an excellent succession planting to Pansies, especially in warm climates where Pansies aren't happy in the summer heat). This plant forms a neat, plump little mound just 10 inches tall and no more than a foot wide, its blooms shooting up above the foliage to greet you from early summer through midsummer. Delightful!
But the best part about Magic White Blotch is its adaptability. If your soil is clay-ey, moist -- or, let's face it, WET! -- or otherwise unsuitable for picky plants, call on this Monkey Flower! It's great for bedding, and its compact size makes it a charmer in containers of all sizes. It blooms readily in full sun (preferable in cooler climates) to partial shade (essential in the deep South and Southwest), and likes to be kept moist -- not a problem in poorly-draining soil!
If you like this color, try the warm-toned Yellow with Red Blotch and the mix of all 16 colors in the Magic series! Pkt is 50 seeds.
