ruby chalice Clarkia
Central coast native ANNUAL with gorgeous lavender-pink cupped shaped flowers with dark red centers. Growing 18 inches- 2 1/2 ft. tall and wide with a long progression of flowers from late spring into summer. Excellent garden subject for full sun to very light shade, tolerating tough conditions and a wide variety of soil types. Responds to a little extra water during flowering to extend the show. Attractive to bees and butterflies though not a deer favorite. Excellent cut flower.
