So velvety…soo intense….just jaw-droppingly delicious red…especially against the highly glossed deep green leaves that mirror all the eye-popping action. This killer color is truly a stop ‘em dead in their tracks kinda red that’s certain to lure you to linger. And it’s that red to the very finish of the flower…making this bushy shiny showy plant a natural for the landscape.
