This plant grows about seven feet tall and has many blooms. the stalks are weak and require a string to support, and keep in shape. When the flowers get waterlogged during a heavy rain the stems may bend to the ground. The plant is a perennial and spread readily. It is kept contained by a trench around the roots.
