Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a large shrub or small tree 4–5 meters in height with an elegant weeping crown shape. The leaves (phyllodes) are narrow, lanceolate, dark green in color, and emit a cinnamon scent when rubbed in hot weather.

A distinctive feature of the variety is its spherical dark red inflorescences, the flowering period of which occurs in late winter and spring. The plant is drought-tolerant, prefers well-drained soils, and tolerates temperatures down to -7°C.

The variety is used in gardening as a solitaire or for group plantings. Due to the impossibility of maintaining characteristics during seed propagation, the variety is reproduced only by cuttings or micropropagation methods.
