With several opposite angled branches from shallowly cup-shaped nodes, in the upper parts. Bearing bronzy pinnate shortly hairy foliage with large lilac-pink ray flowers from July on.

For a sunny warm spot in moist but well drained soil, best protected from severe frost, hardy for us in a field. *** **** This plant is only available as a bare rooted-open ground plant in the dormant season.
