The “Elegant Clarkia” or “Farewell-to-Spring” is a favorite wildflower in the wild in Northern California. With red or maroon stems, the flowers resemble pinkish powder puffs up and down the tall plant. In the northeast, these lovely meadow annuals reach about 12 to 14” in height, but with the moist conditions of the Pacific Northwest (and even well-watered in Southern California) this clarkia can reach 3 to 4 feet for a magnificent show. All clarkias are named for Captain Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. For related species, see godetia, C. amoena.
*Sometimes known as C. elegans.

"This was an amazing discovery. One seed packet produced hundreds of plants, each one like a dainty orchid, in old-fashioned hues, each one like a bridesmaid."
"This is really beautiful in my border. Very easy to grow. Seeded directly into garden and it is performing well. My first try with these was in dry soil and I didn't have much luck but I knew this was Worth another try. Great addition to my bed."
"I planted American Meadows' annual wildflower mix last year in an area that was about 25' x 15'. It has southern exposure and receives full sun. It is in the Colorado Mtns at an elevation of about 8500'. This is a short growing season. Farewell to Spring was the first flower to bloom in June and it kept on blooming for several months. I had no idea what it was and had to look it up on this website. It was beautiful with the blue cornflower and white annual gypsophilia. It was planted again this year, at the end of April, and covered with a landscape frost protection blanket until June 1. The birds didn't get the seeds, and I'll have far more blooms of everything this year, including Farewell to Spring. Also, the deer, chipmunks and rabbits seem to leave this flower alone. I love it."
