- Blooms: Large, single, open-faced flowers with slightly recurved tips.

- Light: Prefers partial sun; does not like extremely hot, sunny areas.
- Pruning: Generally treated as a Group 2 or 3 (light to hard pruning, depending on if you want to promote the first or second flush).
- Interest: Produces silvery, decorative seed heads in winter.
