Whirlwind fan flowers are low maintenance annuals that thrive in tough conditions. These Australian natives can handle intense sun, heat, humidity and drought. Since their flowers are self-cleaning, no deadheading is needed to stay in bloom from planting until frost. Mixing Proven Winners Continuous Release plant food into the soil at time of planting should keep them happy all season. A second application midsummer is recommended in warm climates with extended growing seasons.
