Earth Ginseng - Talinum paniculatum

Ground ginseng, also known as jewel's comfort, enchants with its delicate star-shaped flowers in shades ranging from soft pink to lavender to deep violet. Its loose and multi-branched inflorescences create an impressive display. It is easy to care for in the garden and, thanks to its long bloom life, is particularly suitable as a cut flower. The delicate stems and leaves of the ground ginseng lend floral arrangements an airy lightness, grace, and natural elegance.
