Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a deciduous perennial tree with dense branching and an upright crown shape. The plant is characterized by moderately slow growth and strong branches that are resistant to weather conditions. The heart-shaped leaves have a reddish tint when unfolding, which eventually changes to a deep green.

Flowering occurs in early spring on leafless branches. The variety is characterized by high adaptability to various soil types, provided drainage is ensured, and demonstrates drought tolerance after establishment. The plant is winter hardy in zones 5–9 and is suitable for growing in containers or small gardens.
