Nursery contributed plant descriptions

2.5-3.0 inch dark pink flowers with a dark blotch and overlapping petals open in May.
This compact cutie would make Cupid himself proud. Beginning in May, blooms open deep pink with small dark blotches on overlapping lobes. As flowers fade lightly, this blotch becomes more striking. Low and spreading.
