Goose Rocks is new to me this year and I was surprised that it bloomed at all. Its petals have a crepe-y texture to them and the blooms overall are a peachy color, but I did notice that today it faded to a light pink with an attractive raspberry-colored dot --- for lack of a better description --- at the ends of the petals and sepals. I'll have to keep an eye on it and see whether it does that again next year. Today was its last bloom. It was milder weather than normal (although sunny most of today with a thunderstorm mid-day), and it's still a new plant that's getting established, so for all of those reasons, I'm not assuming it normally fades unless I see it happen again next year. It does appear to be pollen fertile, but I've yet to determine pod fertility (I've only had a few blooms on it this first year, but none of them set a pod).
