Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A small, evergreen, perennial, suckering sub-shrub with small, dark green, sparsely toothed, broadly lance shaped leaves heavily margined in creamy yellow. Bearing from Autumn through to early summer a profusion of bright, salmon pink, masked shaped flowers on wirey stems. One of the best small plants for winter colour, rivaled only by the perennial Nemesias. Cut back to ground level whenever in need of a tidy up. Well drained soil with good sun. An interesting variegated form appearing not unlike some sweet garden confectionery.
