We have grown this select form anonymously for many years and have deemed it worthy of a name. It is shorter than the species and has deep dark shining mahogany stems. It came our way from Canyon Creek Nursery, via Roger Rache, then of the Berkley Botanic Gardens's Eastern US section. Originally collected from coastal Rhode Island.
A strikingly beautiful low-growing groundcover that can quickly form a respectable carpet. Hundereds of carmine rose flowers in late spring. Foliage has bright orange to red fall color.
