百日菊 '珊瑚'

The giant blooms are even more vibrant in person—that coral-to-salmon shift is stunning. All 50 seeds sprouted without fuss, and the flowers easily hit that foot-tall mark in my raised bed. Definitely worth the wait for the double petals.

The double blooms are genuinely huge and that salmon-to-coral colour shift is even prettier in the garden than on the packet. I’ve got 50 seeds, so I scattered them in two batches, and the later ones are still opening now while the first are fading—nice for staggered colour.

The first seedling popped up in just five days, and now the blooms are as big as my hand—that vibrant coral color is even richer than the packet photo showed. Already ordering another packet for the back border.
