Decadently dark burgundy?flowers with a beautiful cupped, semi-double form dazzle and draw the viewer in with a magnetic pull. Flowers are presented well above the foliage on strong stems on this low growing, compact plant, providing a fantastic display in the landscape. Golden stamens provide a striking contrast to the deep red petals which can be interspersed throughout the stamens or nearly absent from the center of the flower, providing visual interest when the plant is viewed as a whole. Petals have a magnificent sheen. One flower per stem on this early blooming hybrid. Excellent cut flower.
