Floribunda - Brilliant scarlet with a white reverse

Gorgeous long white buds set your head spinnin’ when they swirl open to reveal a surprising searing scarlet interior.  The clusters whirl & twirl with colors of glowing orange, red & cream as the showy petals fashion themselves into an unusual pinwheel form.  Carrying flowers & foliage to the ground, this bushy little bouquet machine looks like a make-believe azalea that’s early to flower & fast to repeat.  Dark red new growth & glossy deep green leaves provide the perfect foil for this gyrating show-stealer.
