This vigorous grower has attractive, smooth, narrowly oval pointed leaves that are midgreen above, pale green beneath. Tiny saucer-shaped white blossoms are produced in dense, tapered terminal spikes, 4 to 8 inches long, that curve gracefully over and down from July to September. Leaves turn to rich gold in autumn.
