    My 3' plant I started from seeds I got here in a Nov. 2017 seed swap were labeled 'Cannova Pink,' but have bloomed and are a coralish red, which is another shade in that series -- 'Cannova Reds'. I really wanted a pink variety, but these are an attractive red against the medium green foliage and a different red from 'The President' I have.
