Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant has a compact habit and the ability for profuse branching. Due to the formation of shorter annual shoots compared to many analogs, the variety allows for a reduction in production time, as it does not need the use of supporting structures.

Flowering of the variety is accompanied by the appearance of spherical pink inflorescences. This variety was bred in Shimane Prefecture as part of a series of Japanese hydrangeas and is intended for efficient commercial floriculture.
