More compact, this neat 6-8' (can be trimmed lower) shrub has vibrant green foliage topped with delightful feathery flowers like pink chamgagne for weeks and weeks during mid-summer. S/M
A vigorous upright shrub. Foliage is green with slight burgundy edges to new growth. Blooms are a feathery pink.
An outstanding cultivar that Dirr ranks with Daydream (this sets a high standard), new growth is bronzy purple maturing to green and in summer smothered in fabulous fluffy feathery floating flowers, fantastically pink pubescent from the pedicels and peduncle in the panicles.
