36-48" tall, good heads of pink flowers with a darker pink eye. ZONE 4
A remarkably floriferous cultivar, the heads are crowded with masses of small flowers, which are pale baby-pink with a concise deep rose-pink eye. The smaller scale of the pips and heads add variety to a phlox border, and they are superb in flower arrangements.
