Edward Goucher' - A hybrid cultivar (between A. x grandiflora and A. schumannii) that is very popular in the trade. Flowers are deeper-colored than A. x grandiflora and purple-pink. Leaves are less lustrous and a lighter color green. Mature size is about 5' tall and wide, and the plant blooms for a long period from June to frost. Less hardy than A. x grandiflora, perhaps not the best choice for colder areas
* easily transplanted
* prefers acidic to neutral soil that is well-drained and moist
