Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the lacecap group, where the inflorescence consists of fertile flowers in the center and a ring of sterile marginal flowers. The plant is a compact shrub, reaching a height of about 1 meter 10 years after planting. The foliage is ovoid with a serrated edge.

The color of the marginal flowers varies depending on soil acidity: in an acidic environment, they acquire a bluish shade with a dark blue center, and in an alkaline one, a pink shade with a pink center. Flowering continues from June to September.

The variety is characterized by good winter hardiness. It is intended for cultivation in containers and in open field, with shady locations being preferred.
