This Himalayan species has much larger leaves in summer than other species.In winter the plant is deciduous and longish stolons loop over the substrate with old brown leaves attached which I find interesting. It has upright stems with a loose umbel of a few flowers on tallish stalks in mid summer. But what makes this highly sought after is the reverse of the petals, seen also in bud, which is a deep, dusky pink, outlined with white.
It has grown well outside for many years in tough conditions, eventually making a wide clump. The photographs show summer foliage.... and the plant in the pot is in winter. Partial shade is best, long lived.
