(=‘Moonlit Marble′) An absolutely wonderful introduction bred by Josef Heuger in Germany, this sturdy hybrid is gorgeous both in leaf and in flower. It forms a low mound of leathery evergreen grey-green leaves, heavily veined lighter grey, on red stems. Pink buds appear in early spring and open to large outfacing single creamy-white flowers. Flowers gradually age dark pink. Avoid doing any pruning other than to remove dead leaves or stems down near the base of the plant in spring. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten/Skin irritant. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
