Breeder's notes:
Bloom color is often spectacular. The photos don't do it justice. It has a velvety sheen that is lost when photographed. Very easily propagated from cuttings, so that will please nurseries who adopt it into their inventory. It is also very quick to form a mature shrub from a small rooted cutting, which should appeal to the gardener.

Will become available in Summer of 2012, pending registration.
