Years ago, when Angelonia first came on to the market as a mainstream crop, the plants were large and vigorous. Since that time, the breeding trend has been to move to smaller, more compact plants that are better suited to small pot production scenarios and hanging baskets. With the introduction of Angelface Super Angelonia, Proven Winners returns to the larger plant and flower type. The Super Angelface reach 20 to 24 inches in height depending on the conditions, and produce many 1-inch flowers on upright stems. The Angelface Super series differs from the Angelface series in that the Supers are taller plants with larger flowers and are better suited for consumer use as cut flowers with a more upright habit. The flowers have a distinct grape soda-like fragrance and are long lasting as cut flowers and are also a great addition to the landscape.
