Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a shrub with a height of 1.2 to 1.8 meters. A characteristic feature is the dark red or purple-black shoots, inherited from the parent variety 'Nigra'. The plant's leaves are dark green, glossy, and densely arranged on the shoots.

The inflorescences are flat, characteristic of the lacecap type. The flowers have a lilac-pink color; sterile flowers vary from pale pink to white and may acquire a greenish tint upon maturation. The variety generally does not change color to blue and possesses disease-resistant foliage.
