Joseph's Coat Flowers at Monticello Art Print
An Art Print of Joseph's Coat flowers in the gardens at Monticello which are located in the western lawn for sale by Brandywine General Store. Jefferson included the Joseph's Coat in a shipment of seeds from Paris to his brother-in-law, Francis Eppes, in 1786. The vibrant yellow and red foliage of this brightly plumed tender annual provides an eye-catching display of color. Its edible leaves have a walnut-like flavor and can be eaten raw in salads or steamed. Joseph's Coat grows to four feet and likes a warm, sunny exposure.
