In June–July, the plant forms large paniculate inflorescences ("wigs") of purple or pink-burgundy color. The variety possesses frost resistance down to –23...–25 °C (USDA zone 6) and drought tolerance after rooting. It tolerates pruning well, intended for single and group plantings, as well as container cultivation.
