Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a compact rounded shrub, reaching a height and width of about 137 cm by five years of age. Young foliage has a reddish hue, which changes to dark green in summer and acquires red-orange tones in autumn.

Bright pink flowers are collected in inflorescences about 10 cm in size. The flowering period lasts from June to September. The variety possesses high resistance to powdery mildew and Cercospora leaf spot, as well as drought tolerance and resistance to deer damage.

The plant is suitable for cultivation in various soil types, including sandy and rocky soils. In zones with severe winters, partial dieback of the aerial part is possible with subsequent recovery from the roots.
