  • 8 standard plugs roughly 1" x 1" x 2"

  • Fall Planted (Approximately 6 weeks before your first frost date in the fall)

Daucus Purple Kisses is most often used as an airy filler flower, similar to Queen Anne’s Lace. Simply put, this is one of the fanciest “carrots” you can grow! Daucus adds whimsy and lightness to any floral arrangement and looks fantastic in the garden, gently swaying in the summer breeze. Professional growers and designers appreciate Daucus for its moody and romantic color palette and impressively long vase life. This variety is hardy and easy to grow, with optimal results achieved when planted in full sun and well draining soil. 

This variety showcases beautiful natural variation in color, meaning the blooms may feature shades and tones similar to those in the photos, but not identical.

Daucus Purple Kisses is generally suitable for fall planting in USDA zones 7 and higher (unprotected), and Zones 6 and below with additional protection from a greenhouse, hoop house, or frost cloth. This is strictly a guideline and we cannot guarantee winter survivability.
