Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the group with flat inflorescences approximately 15 cm in diameter. Sterile flowers have elongated, pointed sepals with entire or slightly serrated margins. Depending on soil pH levels, the color varies from deep blue in acidic soils to pink in neutral and alkaline soils.

The plant reaches a height of 0.8–1.2 m and is characterized by high flowering intensity. Frost resistance is up to -18 °C. The variety features sturdy stems, resistance to wind, and is suitable for cultivation in containers, borders, and group plantings.

Scientific literature notes that the variety may exhibit variability in inflorescence shape, sometimes forming fuller, nearly globular inflorescences, which is attributed to genetic characteristics or mixing of material.
