Variety description
10 August 2026
The plant is a complex hybrid, reaching a height of about 1.2 meters. The bush is well-branched and has an upright habit with many basal shoots. Foliage is dark green, three-lobed, deeply dissected, with serrated edges.
Flowers reach 17–18 cm in diameter, have a cup-shaped form and ruffled petal edges. The variety is distinguished by a long flowering period due to the abundant formation of buds along the entire length of the stems. Winter-hardy perennial, adapted to USDA zones 4–9.
Prefers full sun or partial shade and consistently moist soils. For the winter, the above-ground part dies back, in the spring the plant regrows from the root. Used in landscape design for flower beds, borders and container gardening.
