Unusual, multi petalled, papery blooms with tight pointy light to dark pink buds which gradually open to reveal a whiter, blush pink with a bright yellow centre.

They are a great addition to cut flower arrangements with a long vase life and a colour that changes as they age. They mix with brights AND pastels adding interest late spring - autumn.

Unusual, multi petalled, papery blooms with tight pointy light to dark pink buds which gradually open to reveal a light to dark pink papery petal variation surrounding a brighter yellow centre.

Plants are tall and well branched.

Equally attractive fresh in bouquets or mixed into dried flower arrangements as the colour lasts. If you are cutting for drying, ensure the blooms are cut as buds and hung upside down until the stem dries. Keep harvesting for continuous blooms. Does self seed in some climates.
