    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    All summer long you can enjoy this versatile plant's 3 in. dark rosy purple flowers held upright on short stalks. In the front of the border, a tight assemblage of green, scalloped leaves creates a crisp, tidy look that can be even further heightened by planting it alongside Stachys 'Primrose Heron' and Kniphofia 'Vanilla'.
