(M) Masses of deep raspberry-pink flowers are produced throughout the season by this reliable cultivar. It is suitably self-cleaning with green foliage. Raised by Kent Kelly. One of my abiding memories of my trip to the USA in 2000 will be sitting beside a field of this cultivar in the setting sun.
Rich pure “hot” pink, green foliage. Exceptional bloomer and good self-cleaner. Height 3ft. Our most asked about variety in field tours
