Effects of exquisite, jewel-like daintiness. Even the deep

stems bear little five-pointed stars of luminous rosy pink, these 
in loose, alternate clusters. Then come airy, long-hanging 
capsules, like polished coral beads, hundreds of them on each 
great glowing plume of a stem. A single plant may throw 30 
or more of these great, bright plumes. Effective over a three 
to four month period. Usually grown as a garden annual, 
seeds sown in position, but makes a good house plant, too.
