Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant forms a compact rounded crown with deep green glossy leaves. Dense hemispherical inflorescences reach 20 cm in diameter. Sturdy branches are resistant to lodging and hold the inflorescences even during heavy rains.

Flowering occurs on current-year shoots and lasts from June or July to October or November. During the season, the color of the petals changes from greenish shades to intense ruby-red or raspberry-red with possible brown or green streaks.

The variety has winter hardiness down to -23°C and resistance to diseases and pests. The plant is suitable for container cultivation, creating borders, group plantings, and is also used in cutting for fresh and dry bouquets.
