Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant forms a compact upright bush with a height of 45 to 80 cm. Flower stalks reach 66–75 cm in height, and the foliage reaches 30–40 cm. The leaves are dark green, pinnate, and create a dense fern-like form. The silvery-white flowers are gathered in branched paniculate inflorescences on rigid stems.

The flowering period occurs in July-August. The variety is resistant to winter frosts, is not prone to lodging, and possesses higher endurance to sunlight and drought than A. x arendsii hybrids. The plant is used in group plantings, mixed borders, and containers, and is suitable for cutting.
