Variety description
10 August 2026
The plant forms upright, well-branched stems with a height of 45 to 70 cm. The leaves are lanceolate, dark green in color with slight serration along the edges. Flowering begins in mid-July and continues until early autumn; the inflorescences have a pompon shape.
The variety is winter-hardy and withstands temperatures down to -30°C. The plant possesses natural resistance to most pests and diseases. Due to its compact size, the variety is suitable for container cultivation, creating borders, and use in group plantings.
The flowers are suitable for cutting and attract pollinating insects. Despite its hybrid origin, in agronomic literature, the variety is often classified as a cultivar of Echinacea purpurea.
