Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We chose this gothic beauty from a batch of Cowichan seedlings in 2022. Very dark green leaves and moody deep merlot flowers on short stems spring to early summer and a few more blooms later in the season. Morning sun to part shade, loves organic soil that is always moist.
