Variety description
10 August 2026
The plant is a perennial herbaceous succulent crop, forming dense cushions or mats 10–15 cm tall and up to 30–60 cm wide. The foliage is evergreen, fleshy, lanceolate in shape, and green in color.
The flowers are pure white in shade with a possible yellowish center and resemble daisies in shape. A distinctive feature is the ability of the flowers to close at night and in cloudy weather. The flowering period lasts from late spring until frost.
The variety possesses high thermophilicity and drought tolerance, corresponding to USDA hardiness zones 5–9. Cultivation requires ensuring high-quality drainage to prevent root rot and the presence of direct sunlight. It is used in rock gardens, containers, and for slope stabilization.
