In the spring, very small, sharply serrated leaves emerge in a lovely blue green shade. They form a rounded, low mound that is perfect for edging the front of the border. As the plant ages the leaves expand and turn lighter green, forming a short, semi-upright clump. During late summer and early fall a massive dome of bubblegum pink, star-shaped flowers completely cover the foliage followed by deeper pink seed heads later in fall. Pair this plant with other fall bloomers like hardy garden mums or asters and smaller Ornamental Grasses.
