Agree with David. My picture above was more muted, but it usually looks like the 1st picture. I have never done a bud count, but it must have plenty. It usually stays in bloom about a month, and often with bouquets of blooms. I like the coloring of it, nothing else like it in my garden. Not sure mine quite reaches 30"though. Says it is a rebloomer. I have had it years and has never rebloomed for me.
