Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Very showy 1-2' burgundy stems rise up over deep-green basal leaves, from the stem tips hang clusters of brilliant rosy-red buds. The buds open to reveal gorgeous deep-pink blooms with contrasting white throats. Regular deadheading of spent blooms will encourage repeat blooming on this hummingbird magnet! This is a sterile cultivar, so it will not invade your garden. S/M/GDr PP 28,852
