Velvet Queen

Price range: $4.50 through $400.00

One of our all-time favorites. We have been re-selecting this strain over the past few years. Grows 5 feet tall with 5-6″ wide with beautiful dark burgundy flowers. Great centerpiece for any garden, and flowers can be cut and displayed perfectly in a vase. Start cutting at 50 days from planting.
