Pink Drift has performed outstandingly in some not so outstanding circumstances, i.e., takes semi shade without mildewing, takes extreme sun (next to a pool and reflective concrete-facing southwest, and has a very generous and fast rebloom cycle. I continue to use this variety as both a color jolt, tough edging (spreads easily, but can be pruned without losing to much bloom) or low, wide hedge, and so far it's not disappointed my clients. The rodents do like this particular variety.
