Ornamental flowers and grasses
Low, spreading perennial that multiplies via its stolons. Leaves stalked, petiolate, relatively large, distally pointed and with smooth margins. Flowers appear as clusters born on a stalk; tubular and initially pink when fresh but then with pastel shades of pink and blue.
Abundant around the periphery of the cutleaf beech.
