It has been our experience that Gomphrena globosa (Ping Pong Mix) performs well in our area in a warm season planting and required little maintenance. It was observed that Gomphrena globosa 'Ping Pong Purple' was about six inches shorter than the rest of the mix, with the rest of the mix reaching about twenty four inches in height.
