Details

This yellow-centered sport of 'Obsession' features very thick, shiny, rubbery-like dark green leaves. The bright yellow center becomes white by summer. Large lavender flowers bloom in late summer on red flower scapes. Looks best in the front of a garden. A slower grower but worth the wait.
