Variety description

10 August 2026

Mophead-type inflorescences consist of small flowers with serrated petal edges. The color changes during development: from creamy white or lime at the beginning of flowering to pink or blue, and by autumn it shifts to greenish and deep cherry-red tones.

The plant is a compact rounded shrub with a height of 0.7 to 1.5 meters with strong upright shoots. Flowering continues from June-July to September on the previous year's shoots.

The variety has good disease resistance and frost resistance down to -18°C. Suitable for growing in containers, open field, as a houseplant, and for creating dried flowers.
