Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant forms compact flower stalks 15 to 30 cm in height with linear green leaves. The inflorescences have a cylindrical shape and can contain from 30 to 40 flowers up to 4 cm in diameter each. The petals are colored pale pink, often with lighter cream-white edges.

The variety belongs to early spring or mid-early plants; flowering in the open field lasts 2–3 weeks from March to May. The crop is distinguished by a pronounced sweet fragrance, winter hardiness, and resistance to typical bulb diseases, which allows it to be used for cut flowers and forcing in home conditions.
