    Deep green foliage brightly edged with creamy gold makes this 18" selection attractive all season, but its delightful starry flowers in pink are an added bonus in early summer. S/M (not dry) PPAF

    Lovely foliage with golden edged leaves mound 12-18" – cheerful rose flowers in early summer wave on 12-18" stems. Easy to grow in full sun or light shade, well drained moist soils.

    Who really cares about flowers when foliage can be this scrumptious with its variegated leaves of green edged in gold. Forming clumps 12-18" tall x 1' wide, these dieback perennials look lovely all summer but, to give the flowers their due, are especially fine when adorned with loose cymes of pink flowers standing above the foliage. Best in well-drained soil with protection from hottest afternoon sun and accepting of summer water or dry conditions once established. Frost hardy to -20 °F, USDA zone 5.
