Gomphrena Gallery
Gomphrenas galore
You may have noticed we’ve developed a fondness for gomphrena, and why wouldn’t we? This plant has so much to offer—it’s a great low-maintenance, no-maintenance choice. It doesn’t want to be soggy wet, but aside from that gomphrena doesn’t ask for anything. There’s no deadheading.
