Spider Flower Seeds (Cleome hasslerana) from the gardens of Thomas Jefferson's Monticello
Spider Flower is an annual flower and has been traditionally associated with the restored flower gardens at Monticello. Its showy pink flowers, large multi-lobed leaves, and strong growth habit (to five or six feet) make it a handsome addition to the annual flower border. It grows best in full sun during the warm summer months. The seeds may be sowed in spring as the weather warms and thinned so the young plants are three to four feet apart. Spider Flowers self-sow readily.
Blooms are one-of-a-kind. These plants are tall and slender and look their best when planted in the back of a garden border. Be sure to leave plenty of space between plants, they can become bushy if pinched back while growing. They require full sun and a little more care, but if taken care of they will self seed prolifically.
Season: Summer to early fall
Light: Sun
