Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Gorgeous, large pink flowers becoming lighter in the throat, along with ruffled edging, cover this plant each spring. Equally nice large, dark green provide a perfect backdrop.

Loose, ball shaped trusses of ruffled, rose colored flowers lighten to soft pink in the throat, with speckles of red accenting the upper lobes. Abundant, medium green leaves dress the nicely rounded, well branched, upright plant.
