This is my favorite plant for 2025! The blooms sit up high from the foliage and are large. The color is gorgeous. It bloomed all summer. I will definitely buy more next spring. I wish I could include a picture!

Bought this through a local PW grower. Oh, my! I am so impressed! The PW website picture for the Pinkerific does not do it justice! There are color nuances in each flower-darker pink toward the center graduating to a lighter pinkish salmon on the outer edges with a bright yellow center at ult maturity. Put both of mine in pots next to a pedestal pot of PW pink Lemonade superbells--best combo ever!! Thank youPW!!!
