Deep pink buds open up to showy, strong pink blooms. As they age they develop a beautiful contrast of faded petals with darker pink markings. New foliage emerges silvery green, and matures to a crisp green with orange-yellow undersides. A well-branched form makes this an excellent choice for the landscape all year long. Evergreen.
