Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant has a densely branched structure and requires almost no pruning to maintain its shape. The leaves are small, oval, and shiny: young foliage has a bright yellow color, contrasting with older yellow-green leaves that have a green margin. The shoots are thin and black in color.

In May-June, small fragrant flowers of a purple-brown shade with a honey scent appear. The variety is resistant to wind and drought, and withstands frosts down to -7°C...-10°C. It is used for creating low hedges, borders, container cultivation, and topiary.
