There are many selected forms from the overall 'Pewter Group'. Flowers may be white to pink, magenta or reddish. The one feature common to all are the leaves which are nearly to completely silver in colour. The foliage is striking on its own, but combined with the flowers, it makes for a wonderful late winter-early spring display.
