Clean Lines

'Pure And Simple' produces 5–6 inch flowers in a clear, luminous pink with a yellow-green throat and no eye zone, no picotee, no ruffling—just pure color and perfect form. The petals are smooth, slightly recurved, and beautifully proportioned. The plant forms a neat clump 24–28 inches tall. Bloom is mid-season.

In an era of increasingly complex patterns, 'Pure And Simple' stands out by standing back. Its clarity makes it a versatile mixer—it harmonizes with patterned daylilies, provides a visual palate cleanser, and shines in mass plantings. 'Pure And Simple'—sometimes, less truly is more.
