Hardy Perennial. This plant is great for container growing, but must be protected from severe cold. In Northern climates you will need to dig and store the tubers. The delicate pink blooms are individual and appear from early summer until the first frost. The foliage ranges in color from an almost luminous green to a reddish tinge and the plant has a mounding habit.
