Godetia

Ah godetias, how do I love thee?
Godetias are one of my favorite annuals, with one plant having a tight cluster of flowers so that it is, in fact, a bouquet.
I like the godetias with two tone petals of pink and rose, or of rose and white. There are also all white godetias and all pink. Spring is an ideal time to find some started in your local plant store.
These flowers like sun.
I had trouble remembering their name, until I realized the name starts with the word "God", and now it is easy to remember. When in the plant store, just tell the nursery worker I want the flower that starts out "God".

Beautiful flowers, Terra! And I love the way you remember their name! Great way to get a spiritual conversation started with the nursery worker! Have a blessed week!

They are pretty - wish I knew how to pronounce them. lol
Oh how beautiful they are. All things beautiful begin and end with God don't they?
I'm not familiar with this gorgeous bloomer!
Have a blessed and beautiful day sweetie.

What a beautiful flower...and what a wonderful way to remember them. I think I tried growing these in AZ and I do believe that I killed them with kindness.
