The plant forms a compact clump up to 38 cm tall, reaching up to 45 cm with flower stalks. Leaves are fleshy, olive-colored with red serrated edges. A characteristic feature is the bright red stems, which contrast with the foliage. Flowering occurs with small pink flowers gathered in dense, rounded inflorescences in late summer and autumn.
The variety possesses high winter hardiness (USDA zones 4–9) and drought tolerance once established. It prefers full sun and well-drained soils. The plant is characterized by sturdy stems with proper care; an excess of fertilizers or organic matter may cause shoot lodging.
