Variety description

10 August 2026

The leaves of the variety are heart-shaped, large, dense, and firm. They have a silvery-white color with distinct dark green veins and a green margin. The flowers are small, sky-blue when opening, may take on pinkish-lavender shades over time, and are gathered in airy branched inflorescences.

The plant forms a spreading bush 30–40 cm high (up to 45 cm including flower stalks) and 20 to 70 cm wide. The variety is characterized by high winter hardiness (climatic zone 4, down to -34°C) and the ability to maintain a fresh appearance of the foliage on hot days due to its dense texture.

Flowering occurs in the period from April to June. The plant is used for decorating shaded and partially shaded areas, mixed borders, rock gardens, and for creating groundcover arrays.
