Salish Twilight Girl is moody, magical, and endlessly fascinating—front petals glow in soft lilac and silvery lavender, while the backs flash deep rosy plum, so each bloom shifts with every breeze and angle. Compact 3–4 inch flowers are produced in abundance on tall, well-branched plants, and as evening falls, the petals fold slightly to reveal more of that dark, twilighty reverse.
Height: Typically 4–6+ feet, tall and will need staking
Bloom size: 3–4 inches
Form: Formal decorative; tidy, layered petals with a refined shape
Color: Silvery lavender to lilac fronts with a rich magenta/plum reverse; reads moodier in cool weather and fall
Vigor: Very productive once established, known for pumping out buckets of blooms
Stem strength: Long, strong stems excellent for cutting and dramatic arrangements
Special notes: Bred in the Pacific Northwest (Noni Morrison); often compared to Creme de Cassis but with a more dramatic, two-toned effect and stronger reverse color
Why you need this variety:
Salish Twilight Girl gives you that coveted “twilight” color story in a single bloom—soft, romantic fronts and inky, dramatic backs that play with light all day. For moody, painterly arrangements and unforgettable garden presence, she’s one of the true must-grow collector varieties.
