Thorny seeds of Helen Campbell Spiky - Cleome spinosa

The Cléome Helen Campbell is an annual plant with large growth (1m (3.3 ft) to 1.50m) forming clusters of white flowers that are very fragrant and have long stamens, giving them a unique appearance, from June until the first frost.

Known by the following Latin names: Cleome hassleriana, Cleome pungens, or Cleome spinosa, the Cléome Helen Campbell develops tall and hairy stems, carrying palmate leaves measuring 10 to 12 cm (4.7 in).

In summer, compact clusters of white flowers form at the end of the stems. The long stamens give an airy appearance to the flowers, which some compare to spider legs. For this reason, Cléome is called the "Spider Flower" in England.

The highly fragrant flowers fill the garden with their scent all summer long. Pollinating insects will be attracted to your garden because of their presence. It is a good way to improve the ecosystem of your garden and vegetable patch.

Cléome is ideal for creating impressive flowerbed compositions near the house or terrace to enjoy their delightful fragrance.

Originally from the warm regions of South America, Cleome hassleriana Helen Campbell thrives in full sun and cannot tolerate temperatures below 4°C.
