This annual is very easy to start from seed but rabbits LOVE to eat it. They go for it in my garden before anything else. Bloom starts out white and then fills in with a lavender color that gets darker and darker as the days go on. The best part about it is the variety of color you can have on one plant from a snowy white to a deep purple.
