Hi Deb,

I think that photo may be D."Barbara's Pastelle", aka or synonym, "D.Sunlight Pastelle"

The one below is D.Taratahi Ruby from my driveway, I recommend it for flower form, and is probably best clipped a few days after it looks its best, as the heads get too heavy for the long graceful necks. It keeps flowering though. The heads are about eight to ten inches across and held well above the green foliage. The second photograph shows the lovely mild lighter red core with a suggestion of yellow.
