    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A new species out of China, it runs underground but is quite different from the flexuosa types, flowers are purple and outstanding; plants are large and vigorous and appear to be permanent in the garden. The name seems somewhat questionable but this is what we got it as and for now at least we can offer nothing better. ZONE 6
