Fast growing and beautiful, it blooms well on young plants in the nursery. Buds open to numerous dark magenta, 3" upright flowers with pale pink interiors and a very sweet fragrance. Small in stature, it makes an excellent specimen for smaller gardens, container culture or a shrubby boarder. The plants set buds readily in the nursery. Their color and fragrance are unique, attracting a lot of interest in the garden center. In Europe it is sought after for cut flower production.
