Salpiglossis sinuata is an annual with broad, five-lobed trumpet flowers marked by contrasting veins or marbling.
Botanical characteristics
The pattern lies across the corolla, unlike a daisy head composed of many florets. Cool conditions and moist but well-drained soil favour its display; excessive heat can shorten it.
Veined trumpets and named mixtures
Grandiflora Mixed and Superbissima Mixed are the two named mixtures in the wholesale seed range.
