Description

'Eva Dudley' has panicles of pale lilac-pink flowers complemented by densely silver pubescent foliage.[1] Fast growing and floriferous, the shrub was praised by Ernest Wilson for its 'delightful fragrance...a single spray delightfully scents a whole room'.[2]

gollark: That giant flat area is a nice design. I should try that somehow.
gollark: Oh, I could probably do that.
