DETAILED DESCRIPTION

GROWTH HABIT

It forms a good, branching, medium-sized shrub with broad, arching growth that is ideal for a prime spot in the border or for bedding. It will mix easily with other shrubs and plants in cottage garden style plantings. It can also be grown as a specimen. In every way, an excellent garden plant.

ORIGINS OF THE NAME
