InfoCute round green leaves that have a clearly visible serrated edge.
Forms a nice round clump.
Nice airy light lavender flowers float above the clump at the end of June.
Dense mound of round, green foliage; appropriately named hybrid of 'Birchwood Parky's Gold' x 'Golden Tiara' from Frank Nyikos of Indiana; good grower, making it an excellent choice as a low ground cover.
