Color Fountains Hummingbird Cleome Flower Seeds

Color Fountains sends airy flower clusters upward like garden fireworks. Pink, white, and purple blossoms crown tall stems while long stamens give each head a sparkling, spider-flower texture that hummingbirds visit through the warm season.

The 4–5-foot plants make an elegant see-through backdrop rather than a solid wall. They mingle especially well with broad-leaved annuals, and their lofty stems lend movement and height to informal arrangements.
