Variety description
10 August 2026
The plant has an upright habit, reaching 90–100 cm in height and 60–80 cm in width. In spring, the foliage has a blue-green hue, which early changes to red, and in summer and early autumn acquires a deep dark burgundy, chocolate color. In late summer or early autumn, airy purple panicles appear.
The variety is distinguished by high winter hardiness, withstanding temperatures down to -35 °C, and low maintenance. It prefers full sun and fertile, well-drained soils. Used in landscape design for mass plantings, creating accents in flower beds, and container gardening.
