Oxypetalum coeruleum Pint White Double mix
Oxypetalum coeruleum, or Tweedia caerulea, is excellently suited for bouquets and floral decoration. For cut flower production in the second year, it is recommended to start fresh from seed. The use of rhizomes leads to bushier and less vigorous plants. Both Pink White Double Mix and Blue Double Mix yield approximately 50% semi-double, 25% double, and 25% single flowers.
