Description

Bears large clusters of neat, deeply cupped blooms, each with a small boss of stamens. Initially mid-pink, verging on lilac-pink, they pale as they open, the individual petals beautifully defined by their carmine edges. Held above the foliage, they nod gracefully on gently arching growth, and have a sweet fruity fragrance. A healthy variety; it makes a tall, bushy shrub, clothed in glossy foliage. Named after the novel by George Eliot.
