Katz Purple Stock

Spicy, dark purple flowers cloth upright spikes of flowers in the cooler months on this cultivar that will produce half double and half single flowers. This taller growing variety was bred for early spring cut flower production but also is a great addition to flower displays that need a little height. Plant 'Katz Purple' in full sun and in moderately rich and moist soils after the danger of hard frosts have passed.
