A strong fruity-citrus fragrance makes Light Years Away unforgettable, filling the garden and home with its rich perfume. The upright, moderately spreading habit produces clusters of double, old-fashioned blooms from mid to late spring well into fall, all on a plant with excellent disease resistance. Each dark magenta flower opens from a pointed bud into a spiraled form 3–4" across, packed with 75–105 velvety petals.
