Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a tall shrub, reaching a height of 1.5 to 3–4 meters. The shoots are characterized by strength, rigidity, vertical growth direction, and a brownish-red hue with low branching. The dark green leaves have an ellipsoid or oblong shape, serrated edges, and a rough texture.

Large inflorescences of conical or pyramidal shape reach a length of 15 to 35 cm. At the beginning of flowering, they have a creamy-white or cream color, which gradually changes to pink and coral-pink, and by autumn can acquire dark, almost red or lilac shades.

The variety belongs to the mid-late group; flowering lasts from July to September or October. The plant is characterized by high endurance, resistance to urban conditions, and winter hardiness down to -35 °C. Due to the strength of the shoots, which are capable of supporting the inflorescences, and the resistance of the flowers to precipitation, the variety is widely used in ornamental landscaping.
