The Mill On The Floss
Description
The Mill on the Floss produces large clusters of deeply cupped blooms in shades of mid pink, with petals that become paler toward the edges and often develop a distinctive carmine-pink outline. The effect is wonderfully romantic and slightly different from bloom to bloom. A warm myrrh fragrance accompanies the flowers, which repeat through the season on a healthy, bushy shrub. It is especially beautiful in cottage borders where its clustered blooms can mingle with softer companion plants.
