Plant Type Formula

Compact and colorful, Hot Cakes Formula Mix produces dwarf flower spikes adorned with fragrant, double blooms. Flowers range in color from deep burgundy and creamy white to soft lavender and vibrant pink. Hardy in zones 3 - 10, stock is typically grown as a bedding annual but will overwinter in warmer climates. Blooming profusely from late spring to early summer, Hot Cakes Formula Mix is an excellent choice for adding low-growing visual interest to flower beds and container gardens.
