In mid-spring, this compact, upright shrub produces clusters of lightly-scented shell pink trumpet-shaped flowers, each adorned with a harvest gold blotch at the tips. Emerging from distinctive pink buds, these blooms create a breathtaking contrast against the backdrop of dark green evergreen foliage, which persists throughout the year.
