Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by crossing the varieties «Crystal» and «Silver-Edge». The plant is a compact shrub 90–120 cm in height and 75–100 cm in width. It belongs to the lacecap inflorescence type: a flat inflorescence consisting of central fertile flowers surrounded by a ring of sterile ones.

The sepal color varies depending on soil acidity and metal content from pinkish-white to bluish-white or violet-white, with more intense pigment at the base. The flower stalks are strong, and the flowering period lasts from July to September. The variety is suitable for cultivation in USDA hardiness zones 6–9, suitable for open field, containers, and greenhouse forcing.
