Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is characterized by its compact size, reaching a height of 45–60 cm including the flower stalks. A key feature is the strap-shaped leaves with a bright golden-yellow margin, which remain decorative throughout the year. Umbel inflorescences consist of dark blue buds that open into intense blue flowers on strong, dark-colored flower stalks.

The variety blooms during the summer period, from late June to August, and is capable of forming inflorescences in the first year after planting. The plant is moderately drought-tolerant and can withstand short-term temperature drops down to -15°C; however, in cold regions, container cultivation is recommended. It is intended for creating borders, mass plantings, or for use as an accent element.
