An amazing combination of vibrant pink to soft champagne pink, with all shades in between. The petals are elegantly pleated like a pleated skirt!

An ideal flower for the "lazy" gardener! Improve the soil in your garden with a little potting soil and sow directly where you want them to grow; they always succeed. The flowers come in single and double forms, in a playful small cup shape. Even the leaves are beautiful: juicy, fresh, and incised.
