Chris,
Would this be the 'Flamingo' which is green and white with pink tips? It
was for sale around here last year at very low prices. In the chain stores.
I remember looking for some information as you have and ending up deciding
that it was not a hardy plant.
We have a lot of one quart size perennials come into the stores in early
spring that are grown in Canada. That would be what I saw. I did not buy
it. If someone did around our part of the country, I am afraid it will be
while before you can tell. We are very cold again, a second winter in
progress.
