[R. Klehm 2003]  Lactiflora:  Large, fragrant flowers combine a whorl of broad, vibrant pink guard petals surrounding a brilliant center filled with bright yellow staminodes interspersed with pink petaloids to create an eye-catching display. A prolific bloomer, typically producing 3 to 4 flowers per stem. Attractive shrubs have strong, sturdy stems that carry the blossoms without staking. Great choice for both landscape and vase. A customer favorite! (We love it, too!) Blooms midseason.
