This diminutive, ball-shaped shrub (to only 2') produces a good crop of proportionately small pink flowers; delightful in containers or as edger. PPAF, Inst of Gardening Pruhonice Czech S/M

Now isn't this just the dearest thing! Perfect soft pink blooms on a little 'poppet' of a shrub -- a mere 18-24" tall and adorable. A repeat bloomer that produces a profusion of soft pink flowers. Hardy enough to live most places in a large pot and small enough to do just that. Prune or shear after flowering to maintain size. PPAF
