Variety description
10 August 2026
The plant forms a dense bush 45–60 cm tall with narrow gray-green leaves, the tips of which are slightly curled. The flowers are gathered in rounded umbellate inflorescences 4–5 cm in diameter, having a light amethyst-violet color.
Flowering occurs in late summer to early autumn. The buds droop before opening, and as the flowers bloom, the peduncles straighten. The variety is drought-tolerant, prefers well-drained soils, and is winter-hardy in zones 4–8.
The plant is used in landscape design for mass plantings, border edging, rock gardens, and container cultivation. The variety attracts bees and butterflies and possesses high resistance to diseases and pests.
