Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a compact herbaceous perennial with a height of 90–120 cm, featuring branching stems that die back in winter. The leaves are deeply lobed and colored in bronze-purple and copper-red tones.

The flowers are 20–30 cm in diameter, white or light pink in color with a bright red center and veins. Flowering continues from mid-summer until frost, with each individual flower living for one day.

The variety is resistant to temperatures down to -34 °C and many diseases, including leaf spot and root rot. It prefers sunny areas and moist, organic-rich soils, and does not tolerate complete drying out of the soil.
