Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant reaches a height of about 50–51 cm with a width of up to 90 cm. The leaves are broad and lanceolate: in spring they have a dark olive hue, after flowering they turn bright green with chartreuse-colored veins, and in autumn they acquire a golden-yellow color. The flowers are gathered in dense terminal inflorescences.

Flowering occurs in late spring and early summer. The variety is low-maintenance and resistant to heat, humidity, diseases, pests, and deer browsing. Due to its dense habit, it is resistant to lodging. It is used in borders, rock gardens, mass plantings, and rain gardens, and attracts pollinators.
