Grower Information

Intense lime green leaves, controlled and mounded shape,  and pollenless heads make this terrific new variety shine in the stores, and outdoors in landscapes and mixed or mono containers. Jade Princess is a "must have" for landscapers and consumers looking for plants in the popular chartreuse color group. It offers an economical option to growers - seed can be direct-sown into finish containers. Plants are well-suited to pot sizes up to gallons, and offer a fast finish time. The most compact of the PanAmerican Seed millets, the plants ship well. Note: Jade Princess requires warmer temperatures than other millets to perform well.
