Bidens ‘Pretty in Pink’

Common Name:
Pretty in Pink Bidens

Description:
Bidens ‘Pretty in Pink’ is a vibrant, compact flowering perennial celebrated for its abundance of dainty, pink daisy-like blooms with soft yellow centres. This modern cultivar has been specially bred for strong performance and extended flowering, offering continuous colour from early spring through to late autumn in Melbourne gardens. The fine, ferny green foliage forms a tidy, mounded habit that works beautifully in pots, hanging baskets, borders, or massed in garden beds. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soils and is remarkably heat-tolerant, making it ideal for adding long-lasting, low-maintenance cheer to warm-season displays. Unlike older Bidens types, ‘Pretty in Pink’ maintains a neat form without becoming straggly, and it rarely needs deadheading to keep blooming profusely. Bees and other pollinators are attracted to its colourful flowers, making it a great choice for wildlife-friendly gardens.
