Positive Toxicodendron On Jan 25, 2006, Toxicodendron from Piedmont, MO (Zone 6a) wrote:

Heaven's Peace produces heavy, fully double flowers. They are predominantly shades of pink, with touches of creamy yellow. The blooms tend to hang down due the heavy weight. They are about 7 inches across, and last 2 to 3 days. The plants have a good upright growth habit and strong stems.
