Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Compact, mounding perennial 12-18” tall and 18-24” wide, will spill from pots and baskets...stems topped by crazy pink flowers with fluted spoon shaped petals! They almost don’t look real...also nice at the front of the border where their intricacies can be appreciated. They like sun to part shade, decent soil and regular moisture. They are not long lived, because I think the long bloom from late spring to fall takes too much energy!
