    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This is a sport of who knows what that I discovered in the garden of Roger and Carol Copland in Wyncote PA. It starts off the season kinda normal and then in mid season, explodes into a brilliant array of pinks, whites, reds and cream marbled variegation.
