Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A summer beauty. Lovely light, peachy-yellow flowers with red eyes all summer. In the cool days of spring and fall the flowers take on a wine rose blush. Bright green mounds are just visible beneath the masses of flowers. Easy to grow but best in hot sunny spots with soils on the dry side.
A MASS of strawberry (spring ; fall) to strawberry-eyed-butter-yellow flowers late springing into fall provide a delightfully changing but always floriferous 2-3' mound; an exciting backbone for the border. S/M PPAF PVR
This hardy hybrid out of C. auriculata 'Nana' begins flowering in the late spring with 2" strawberry-eyed, butter-yellow flowers. Flowers form a mid-height canopy of color, which changes as the season progresses. Cooler temperatures of fall tint the flowers a strawberry-pink. Continuous flower production and great vigor.
