A shrubby, evergreen perennial. Sage green, felty, ivy like leaves, are held on flexible, woody, upright stems. Throughout the warmer months, open, cup shaped, pale pink flowers, with a dark halo are produced in abundance. Prune as necessary. One of the few plants which prefers heavy soil, even clay, as long as it's well drained.

One of the most floriferous shrubs we've ever grown! Not a bit fussy as long as it gets sun. Occasional tipping promotes business. White blooms sport a red center and the blooms gradually fades to pink. Silver-gray lobed leaves provide a charming background to the beautifully textured blooms. Individual blooms are short-lived, they are produced in profuse. Semi-evergreen in cold areas, evergreen in warm. Fast grower. Species native to Europe and parts of Asia.
