The plant is characterized by an upright, bushy, and spreading habit. The height of a mature specimen is 40–56 cm, diameter — 20–35 cm. The leaves are oval-shaped, dark green with purple-red spots.
The variety is bred as an ornamental foliage plant with an absence or small number of flowers, as breeding is directed against early flowering. It possesses high growth vigor, low maintenance requirements, and adaptability to various light conditions from deep shade to partial sun.
It is grown as an annual plant; in USDA zones 10–11 it can be cultivated as a perennial. It is used as a filler in container compositions, for mass landscape plantings, and as an indoor crop.
