Variety description

10 August 2026

The shrub reaches a height and width of approximately 75–80 cm. The foliage is dark green and glossy. The spherical inflorescences have a deep crimson color that is independent of soil acidity.

The variety is late-blooming, with flowering that is prolonged and nearly continuous from summer to autumn on the current year's growth. Sturdy stems hold the inflorescences well, preventing them from drooping.

The plant is winter-hardy, withstanding USDA climate zones 3–8. Suitable for mass plantings, creating low borders, container cultivation, and use as cut flowers.
