The holy grail of true-blue specialty cut flowers. Our vigorous Tweedia plugs establish quickly, delivering downy foliage and endless star-shaped, turquoise-blue blooms that wedding designers and florists obsess over.
Full Description:
True blue is a rare treasure in the floral world, and 'Heavenly Blue' Tweedia delivers it in abundance. Each plant produces branching, twining stems clothed in soft, felted, heart-shaped leaves and crowned with clusters of 5-petaled, pale turquoise stars. As the blooms mature, they shift gracefully into subtle lavender-tinged blues, offering dynamic depth in bouquets.
Starting Tweedia from seed can be notoriously slow and tricky due to irregular germination. Our healthy, pre-established plugs skip the guesswork, giving you a strong head start on a high-value specialty crop. A must-grow for wedding florists, event work, and home cutting gardens alike.
