Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Vividly colored flowers and darker pink buds are housed on well-branched slender spires of small pink blooms opening from the bottom up. The pretty floral parade rides straight-backed, tall steadfast stems clothed in opposite, pointy dark green lax leaves, creating a dynamic juxtaposition between the untaut foliage and the plant's stiff upright stature. 'Pink Spires' promises nonstop blooms all summer long, injects height into your border, never needs staking and makes a stellar cut flower.
