Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Bright, dark pink with an overlay of blue makes for a unique color combination and a special brilliance.

By: Bloom River Gardens

Here is a great, all around plant. First, it has attractive, deep forest-green foliage and it's a tough plant that branches well and grows vigorously. Then, the flower is a bright, showy, pink with deeper pink in the throat. The slight touch of blue in the color gives it a special radiance and glow. ('Vulcan' x 'Harvest Moon')
