Bellis perennis Mars Mix
The Bellis Mars Mix offers a uniform mixture of Mars Red, Mars Rose, and Mars White. The compact plants bear semi-double flowers with a yellow center and narrow, dark green leaves. The beauty of the Bellis perennis Mars series is that the varieties do not require a cold period to form their cheerful flowers. You can easily grow them for both autumn and very early spring sales. They combine well with Violas and Myosotis. Additionally, they have a very compact plant structure and are excellent for cultivation in smaller pot sizes. Bellis Mars is beautiful in beds, on balconies, in flower boxes, and as edging. The colors from this Bellis Mars Mix are also available individually.
