This miniature is a very fast grower and a good bloomer. I don’t have good documentation on it but I think the pollen parent may be Desert Princess. The color is unusual, I would call it dusty rose. There is a thin cream colored picotee edge and a cream midrib and also a thin darker rose colored eye over a gold/green throat. It is just 14” high with a 2.5 inch bloom. It’s a dormant, diploid and it blooms most of the season.

This little gem is only 14 inches tall and has lots of 2 inch, peachy/pink flowers. She is perfectly formed, ruffled and a very soft, light pink.  The center eye zone is a darker bright pink which streaks onto the petals giving it a star shape. The green throat and prominent mid-rib, which is the same color as the ruffled edge, make it stand out. It is an evergreen, diploid but does well in my WI garden. She is fragrant and heavy substance gives her extended bloom.
