White Flower Farm
Ping Pong Gomphrena Trio
Best low-maintenance annuals for gardeners seeking long-lasting, versatile floral arrangements.
This trio features three highly floriferous Gomphrena varieties: 'Ping Pong Lavender', 'Ping Pong Purple', and 'Ping Pong White'. They produce playful, ball-shaped blossoms in amethyst purple, lavender, and white over a long season, making them excellent for mixed borders and containers. These plants are useful both fresh-cut and dried, offering continuous color until the first hard frost. They thrive in full sun and average, well-drained soil, requiring minimal care once established. Pinching back by half upon arrival encourages more branching and a longer bloom period.
