Gomphrena is a Gem

Gnome Purple Gomphrena was one of the few choices left at the garden center when I got back from the UK in mid June. It didn't look at that exciting at the time.  Now that it's been in my garden a month, it's proven itself to be a great flower. The compact plants are bushy and full of flowers.  The color is a tasteful almost-neon, magenta-like purple. I've got it paired with alyssum as a border, and the two textures contrast nicely.
