Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The name describes it perfectly! Each rounded truss is like a large "pom pom" of warm, vibrant rose-pink mixed with orange overtones. It has yellow in the throat, some light pink in the center and some purple on the edges. The big trusses are full of flowers topping deep green leaves. Another winning hybrid from Thompsons. ('Katrina' x 'Lem's Cameo')
