Nursery contributed plant descriptions

My new love! Large, wavy, almost tricolor blooms emit rich, luscious shades of purple, violet and blue lavender. Richly scented, do cut them for bedside bouquets - such a heavenly way to fall asleep! And cutting definitely extends the bloom season. Vigorous to 8'. Rich loamy soil. Self sows!
