Description
An extended bloom period lasting up to a month produces great flower power on this complex hybrid from Dennis Ledvina. Tiny buds during the winter are wonderfully hardy, but they open to large, wide-tepaled, bright pink flowers. The flowering period is prolonged because of the many secondary flower buds, which open after the primary buds, giving a whole second wave of bloom. to 20' tall and wide.
