FWIW, RHS Plant Finder lists '-pink' under S. canadensis - no real cv
name, but indicates that there is definitely a recognized pink form.
Expect this is rather rare and have dibs on your first set of
grandchildren from this plant, should they come true:-)
Lucky you! Mark that plant so you can see if it comes back next year
with the same coloration....what a find!
