Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant's vegetation cycle is 11–13 weeks. Plant height varies in the range from 70 to 120 cm. The inflorescences have a dense, velvety structure of crested or rounded shape in soft pink or coral-pink shades.

The plant features thin, strong stems, ensuring ease of transport and use in floral arrangements. Vase life is approximately three weeks. The variety shows increased stress resistance compared to early analogs, but is sensitive to root system damage and requires protection against fungal diseases.
