2013 review: I'm a landscape architect and I'm constantly on the look for New & Unusual plant material for client's garden's. In Chicago,...Read More the Million Kisses "Elegance" is the first of the series to show up at the nurseries; why the other colours haven't presented themselves, I don't know. I was mad-crazy for the unusual colour: peachy-pink cascading blossoms on a darkish/bronzey foliage. I was pairing it with giant 14" coleus pots that had multiple colour stem cuttings.
I LOVED the plant...however, in the three gardens I used THIS particular colour, NONE of my client's could stand it and asked me to switch it out for ANYTHING ELSE! :( They said it looked "sick, sad, depressing"; oh well, so much for a person's taste level. So, I dug them up and switched them out with the old standby: Dragonwing Begonias. Now, THESE plants are happily living on my own deck and very much appreciated.
THAT is why I gave this plant a "neutral" rating: if buying it for yourself, then obviously YOU like it. However, if buying it for someone else...be careful! I've never planted an annual that had so many negative reactions to it.
Pale pink/White 1 1/2" long blooms.
Doesn't bloom as heavily as 'Romance' but still a very impressive sight.
Like the other...Read More 'Million Kisses' it's a trailer so the height varies.
