How can you resist a plant called, 'Kiss Me Over The Garden Gate?' This heirloom is so pretty and fun to grow. It can self-seed in some growing zones, but you're going to be cutting so many of the seed heads for bouquets, that usually isn't a problem. It dries beautifully for dried floral arrangements, too. Seed is available through Baker Creek.

From Baker Creek: Annual. A pollinator friendly favorite from the Victorian era. This unsung hero of the classic cottage garden boasts cerise pink draping, rope-like flowers. Plants mature over 6' tall. We are happy to offer this rare and colorful heirloom from the gardens of yesteryear. A nice cut or dried flower.

Just using google images, yes I get a couple of pics for Constoluto Genovese but a few more called Constoluto Florentino. This website has a good pic and it looks really close. We saved some seeds at any rate for next year.
Thanks for steering me in this direction.
