Towering stems topped with large, airy flower heads in a mix of light pink, hot pink, and white create a bold, tropical effect that transforms any border into something truly spectacular. The spidery, long-stamened blooms are endlessly fascinating up close, and the plant's sheer height and presence make it a natural focal point in the summer garden. Self-seeds freely, so once you grow it, it tends to return year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Gardeners Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌸 \u003cstrong\u003eLarge airy flower heads in light pink, hot pink, and white\u003c\/strong\u003e — bold, tropical, and utterly eye-catching in the border\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e📏 \u003cstrong\u003eGrows 90–150 cm tall\u003c\/strong\u003e — a dramatic back-of-border statement plant that commands attention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🐝 \u003cstrong\u003eOutstanding for bees and butterflies\u003c\/strong\u003e — a magnet for pollinators throughout summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌱 \u003cstrong\u003eSelf-seeds freely\u003c\/strong\u003e — once established, will return reliably year after year with minimal effort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e☀️ \u003cstrong\u003eHeat and drought tolerant\u003c\/strong\u003e — thrives in warm, sunny conditions with minimal fuss once established\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Tips for New Zealand\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSow seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow in spring once soil has thoroughly warmed — Cleome loves heat and will be slow in cold conditions. Chill seeds in the fridge for a few days before sowing to improve germination. Sow on the surface of moist seed-raising mix as light aids germination. Transplant seedlings to 45–60 cm apart in a sunny, sheltered position with well-drained soil. Water regularly until established, then drought tolerant. Performs best in NZ's warmer regions but will thrive in any sunny, warm summer position throughout the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Packet\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach packet contains \u003cstrong\u003e10 seeds\u003c\/strong\u003e of Cleome Spinosa Mix (\u003cem\u003eCleome spinosa\u003c\/em\u003e), a blend of mixed colours.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chbotanics Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45029214060613,"sku":null,"price":4.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/2974\/5733\/files\/image_973686ba-4d83-4846-a17d-310a67f23768.png?v=1779097837","url":"https:\/\/chbotanics.co.nz\/products\/cleome-spinosa-mix-seeds-1","provider":"Chbotanics Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
