Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a dense, highly branched shrub with tightly spaced shoots and dark green needle-like foliage. A mature bush can reach a height of about 1 meter.

Flowering occurs in the spring, typically from March to May. The plant produces small bell-shaped white flowers that possess a honey aroma. The variety demonstrates abundant flowering as early as the second year of life.

The plant is winter-hardy and reliable. For normal growth, it requires a sunny location protected from the wind and well-drained acidic soil.

The variety is used in ornamental gardening as a solitary or group plant; it is suitable for cultivation in containers, on gravel beds, and in the bonsai technique.
