    HVH: "'Night Runner' blooms with a beautiful 6-8" many-colored flower. The colors are vivid at opening, and fade to softer shades in the sun. 'Night Runner's' bush tends to sprawl and droop, requiring stakes and training, but the beautiful flower is worth the extra trouble. 'Night Runner' is an Erlich hybrid."
