    Received the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit

    This plant won the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit by impressing the judges with its compact, upright habit and full heads of the most stunning rose-pink punctuated by white buds. A winner in the garden and in the beds!

    Dormancy Required for Growth

    Will take low watering once established

    These plants grow best in well-drained, lean soil. AVOID CHEMICAL SPRAYS

    A good candidate for growing in the deep southern states.
