Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The name of this pretty cultivar could actually cover a fairly wide range of colors!, but it is actually a lovely delicate pink. Sun/Med
WC This is a fairly small growing selection, only to about 6' tall and wide. Blush pink to pink-lavender flowers are born in abundance and at a very early age. Sometimes listed as a vulgaris, but the early May bloom gives it away.

By: Greer Gardens Inc.
