The mounded, branching habit of Rapide makes a premium product in pack, container or basket. Large flowers add to the appeal and are produced in profusion. Rapide is early to flower and will initiate flowers in shorter days than comparable varieties. Impressive Summer performance, particularly in high temperature and humidity zones. In the landscape, Rapide mounds and spreads without 'splitting'. Rapide gives good container and basket coverage but looks neat and full of flower season long.
