Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a compact, dense shrub with strong upright shoots and dark green glossy foliage, the young growth of which may have a bronze or copper-red hue. The height of a mature bush varies from 80 to 150 cm.

Flowering occurs on previous year's shoots from July to September-October and is characterized by the appearance of large spherical inflorescences 15–25 cm in diameter. The petals have a white or creamy-white color with a pink margin, which in acidic soils can change to purple-red or lilac tones.

The variety is intended for landscaping gardens, container cultivation, and use in cut flower arrangements. The crop is valued for its resistance to inflorescence drooping; in conditions of severe winters, covering is recommended, despite the claimed frost resistance.
