AuntB, this is the hardy Plum Crazy. None of the blossoms on the plants that grow in Minnesota look whitish. They are all a deep mauve pink with a dark red eye.

I planted Plum Crazy next to Fantasia this past May - not the best placement as far as being able to differentiate the plants because they are similar to an untrained eye. They are in my front yard, and this year they are creating quite a stir. Fantasia has been there about 4 years, and this year it is putting on a real show with several stalks covered with blooms. Even the UPS driver stopped to inquire about them.
