Balloon Flower

Description

Balloon flower is a clump-forming perennial that is so named because its flower buds puff up like balloons before bursting open into outward-to-upward-facing, bell-shaped flowers with five pointed lobes. ‘Astra Pink’ is a dwarf/compact form that produces bright pink flowers to 3” across singly or in small clusters atop stems typically growing to only 6-12” tall with a spread to 8” wide. Blooms throughout the summer. Ovate to lance-shaped, toothed, blue-green leaves.
