Gomphrena QIS Mix, also known as Gomphrena haageana and Gomphrena globosa, is a mixture of Gomphrena varieties. Our varieties are professional-tier upright annuals originally native to Central and South America. This versatile series reaches a mature height of 24 to 26 inches and is highly valued for producing a vibrant palette of ball-shaped, clover-like flowers throughout the summer and fall. These tough plants thrive in full sun and require well-drained soil to support their continuous, high-yield production of stiff flowering stems. The mix provides a sophisticated range of colors that are perfect for architectural landscape borders, large containers, and premium fresh or dried cut flower programs. For a high-impact garden display, try pairing this mix with companions like Limonium sinuatum, Salvia, or Zinnia elegans.

Coach Your Customer Plant in a location that receives full sun for at least six to eight hours a day to ensure the most profuse blooms. Space your plants about 10 to 12 inches apart in the garden to allow for the air circulation they need to stay healthy. Maintain consistent soil moisture during the first two weeks after planting to help the root system establish properly. These are tough, heat-tolerant annuals that will continue to produce beautiful color until the first sign of frost.
General Growing Tips For Your Seedling Tray
Qis Mix (Haageana) + Globosa) does best when a soil pH between 5.8 and 6.2 is maintained and a constant feed rate of 150 to 200 ppm Nitrogen is provided. Greenhouse temperatures should remain at 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and approximately 60 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit at night. Gomphrenas prefer high light conditions and typically finish from transplant to sale in 10 to 12 weeks. Gomphrena are generally day-neutral and naturally basal-branching, making it a very programmable and grower-friendly crop.

It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
