Comments:

An unusual tropical annual, Button Beauty can be grown as a warm-season annual anywhere, and year-round in the warmer climates of zones 10 and 11. Climate Map

If you've never even heard of Brazilian Bachelor's Button before, give this unusual plant a try. It is easy to grow, the foliage is fragrant, and the flowers are charming, very long-lasting, and can be cut for fresh arrangements or let them dry.

Very fast growing, the upright, compact plants reach 2 feet (61 cm) and are covered in glossy fragrant foliage. A fast-growing solution for full sun containers and gardens.
