This one has it all - cevennensis breeding for mildew resistance, heat and humidity tolerance and upright habit with large coral to pink to violet flowers that "look at you." Features an excellent shelf life with a very short delay from flower to foliage form. Spectacular silver foliage for year round sales makes this a winner!
