Description
Stunning blooms light up the shade and make a lively accent for dried floral arrangements and cut flower bouquets. Branched heads of large white pincushion flowers with a red flush provide a fireworks of color over tidy clumps of lush green foliage. This vigorous, bushy, free-flowering variety is a versatile addition to the garden, perfect everywhere from borders to containers and as a good architectural plant. Long blooming and fragrant, too.
