Black And White (African Bride) Love In A Mist Plants
Love in a Mist Black and White is a true black and white flower, a rarity! The color and shape is striking in a modern garden. So much character packed into such a little bloom.
Love in a Mist will grow anywhere, and we love the sculptural and airy shape - it looks funky and modern mixed into a garden bed.
Includes three young plants, grown in 2.5" diameter pots.

Growing Info
How to Plant | Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water |
Where to Plant | Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun, poor soil is fine for this guy |
When to Plant | Plant outside after your last frost. Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon |
When to Expect Blooms | Mid-summer through frost |
Care Instructions | Water regularly until they get established, and give them extra water during dry spells. Pick blooms to encourage more |
Extra Credit | Love in a Mist leaves and petals are edible with a watercress flavor, and the seeds can be used as a spice |
