Cleome is an annual flower known as spider flower. The name comes from its long, protruding stamens that look like spider legs.
This mix produces blooms in white, pink, purple, and rose. Individual flowers open gradually from the bottom of the cluster upward.
The plant reaches 90 to 150 cm in height. It grows best at the back of borders because of its tall, upright habit.
Cleome tolerates heat and drought well once established. Full sun with at least 6 hours of direct light is required for best flowering.
