Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant forms a compact upright shrub with a height and width of 1.0 to 1.5 m. Distinctive features of the variety include deep dark green foliage, often with a bronze or purple-black hue, the presence of light veins on the leaves, and almost black stem coloration.

Flat, lacecap-shaped inflorescences up to 20 cm in diameter bloom on the previous year's shoots from June to September or October. Depending on the substrate acidity, the flowers acquire pink-red or purple and blue shades.

The variety possesses good stability due to its rigid shoots and withstands frosts down to –15 °C (according to some data down to –23 °C), although young plants require covering. It is used for landscape design in borders, container gardening, and cut flowers.
