Blooming Time
Exposure
`Pink Frost’ is a compact yet vigorous selection, forming tidy mounds adorned with a high count of deep burgundy buds that first appear in winter. A heavy bloomer in late winter and early spring, the buds of `Pink Frost’ open to reveal outward facing flowers in shades of dusky rose streaked with white. These flowers darken with age, eventually turning a deep burgundy. The evergreen foliage of `Pink Frost; remains interesting long after its flowers have faded; leaves are veined in red and overlaid with a silvery sheen. A nice choice for the woodland border or other shady setting.
