Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

  • Description

  • Notes

'New Hampshire' is a wonderful G. sanguinium cultivar, with its huge, half-dollar-size rose-pink flowers, long bloom period, and restrained spreading habit. As a bonus, the finely divided cut-leaf, green foliage is ablaze in hues of red and orange during the fall. Grows about 8 inches tall and 18 inches wide. Use in a perennial border, at the edge of a shrub or foundation border, or along a pathway.
