Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This big girl's huge 6-7" bright pink flowers look like they should be from a tropical island…but this perennial beauty is hardy to way below zero!! Perennial stems rise each year to 4-6' tall and 3-4' wide, flowers are a late summer treat and ALWAYS draw WOWS from our customers when they see it in the garden! So easy to grow in most any soil in full sun - appreciates moisture (even a little soggy) but performs with occasional water too. Our deer herd ignores this plant. Exclusive!
