Won Fifth Place in the All-America Selection in 1947. 
18 inches in height, very uniform in growth with bright green foliage. 
Bush type, developing both base and side branches until it is a perfect mass of color. 
When small it starts as a pink-tipped with gold that turns to a salmon, then to a bright 
shell pink when fully developed in September. There is no variation to this as all the 
plants are the same in development. 
Excellent as a cut-flower at any stage, from corsage to spray work and basket. 
A wonderful pot plant as it does not deteriorate or fade. 
Given plenty of moisture and pinching back it will last indefinitely 
as a pot plant. 
Outdoors it will last and keep blooming until destroyed by frost. 
Makes lovely winter bouquets if cut and dried at any time.
