Product Description
Bidens Taka Tuka Red Yellow Centre is an eye‑catching annual that brings a lively mix of red petals with sunny yellow centres to hanging baskets, patio pots and mixed container displays throughout the summer. Its finely divided, dark green foliage forms a neat base for a prolific show of blooms that continue from late spring into autumn in full sun or partial shade.
Ideal for adding both height and colour to outdoor plantings, this variety develops a well‑branched, trailing habit that spills attractively over pot rims and basket edges. Mature plants typically reach a medium, spreading form, making them equally suited to containers, bedding schemes or bold mixed displays. Regular deadheading helps maintain a fresh and abundant flowering period.
Plant Taka Tuka Red Yellow Centre in well‑drained soil or compost and water regularly in warmer weather to keep its floral display vigorous and long‑lasting. It combines beautifully with other sun‑loving annuals such as Petunia, Calibrachoa or Nemesia for a vibrant, layered summer palette that attracts bees and other pollinators.

Growing at a glance…
Unpack your plants immediately upon arrival and give them a little water if they feel a bit dry. Pot on for 2-3 weeks before planting them out into their final positions outdoors. Alternatively, you can plant these plugs directly outdoors if the weather permits (all risk of frost is gone). Water these plants freely during the growing season and make sure to dead-head spent flowers regularly to prolong their display.
