Interesting Notes About MARIESII BALLOON FLOWER
Balloon Flowers are easy to grow perennials that thrive in almost any well-drained soil. They can easily adapt to grow in either full sun or part shade. Be patient in the spring, as this plant is slow to emerge. Cut the whole plant back after the first hard frost.

This is one of my most favorite perennials. It has neat clean foilage, beautiful flowers and requires very little care. It always looks wonderful. A must have plant in any garden.
