Read detailed description :

Edited by Minier in 2007. Selected from the Vasterival garden in Normandy, property of Princess Sturdza. Very floriferous, vigorous and bushy plant, well branches from the base. Beautiful red autumn colouring. Outstanding large star-shaped flowers with a large tapered tip in the begining of summer. Edible orange-red, strawberry-shaped fruits in September. Healthy and hardy plant with an average growth at first, and that grows faster afterwards.
