Variety description

10 August 2026

The leaf rosette reaches a height of 50–90 cm, and including the strong flower stalks, the plant grows to 100–150 cm. Flowering occurs from late spring to September. The variety possesses improved winter hardiness compared to pure species; in temperate climates, the above-ground part dies off for the winter.

The plant prefers semi-shaded areas and fertile, well-drained soils. Due to the variegated leaf color, the variety needs protection from direct sunlight and requires regular watering. It is used for landscape design, mixed border planting, and container cultivation.
