Variety description

10 August 2026

Herbaceous perennial forms basal rosettes and underground stolons, through which it spreads. Leaves are dark green, heart-shaped or ovate, with serrated edges. Plant height ranges from 25–30 cm to 40–60 cm depending on growing conditions.

Flowers have an unusual shape with petals divided into linear segments; their coloration is mauve-pink with crimson spotting. Flowering begins in late spring and continues until August–September; reblooming is possible after removing the inflorescences.

The plant possesses frost resistance in zones 5–9 (down to -29°C) and is considered a sterile hybrid. It is used in the decorative landscaping of flower beds and containers and attracts pollinating insects.
