    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This is one of the HOTTEST, most sought after plants in the trade. Petals are white-tipped with a dark raspberry center. Blooms in late spring to midsummer atop plants with fine, needle-like foliage. Clumps form rapidly to form a groundcover. Shear plants after flowering to allow a new flush of flowers in fall and to limit self-seeding. A sport of C. rosea 'American Dream'.
