    This is a great plant. Hope not to jinx myself. Have had it for 3 seasons and 2 winters. Remains disease free for me. Stays so tiny at about 12 to 15 inches and blooms all season. Will produce blooming side buds just under the top blooms. It does reseed. So far, all seedlings have been a mauve-pink. These have also remained disease free. Will update on seedlings next season. So easy to tuck this gem in anywhere up front. Looks excellent with rose Sunrise Sunset.
