Unique Form

This cultivar exhibits extreme crispate form—petals that twist, curl, and fold like ribbons. Colors are often bright and varied: yellow, orange, pink, with a contrasting eye. The effect is whimsical and sculptural. Flowers 5–6 inches.

Design Uses

Plant where the unusual form can be seen up close—along a path, in a container, or in a dedicated "unusual form" bed. Great for cut flower arrangements where the curls add interest.
