Celosia argentea cristata Bar Bora (Purple)
Celosia Bar Bora is a fluffy purple beauty of high quality. Compared to the Act series, the production time of Celosia Bar is a bit longer, but you will be rewarded with a large comb, a robust plant habit, extremely sturdy stems and a very long vase life. In addition, Celosia Bar is less sensitive to thrips than most other varieties on the market. By planting Bar Bora in the greenhouse from early spring to late summer and with a cultivation time of 9 to 13 weeks, you can harvest from spring to late autumn. Match with Celosia Bar Bossa, the chic champagne-coloured Celosia, of similar quality and design. Both Bar varieties can be grown well together with Celosia Red Ace, a stand-alone variety with a radiant red comb.
