Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a compact dwarf evergreen shrub, the height and width of which are usually about 45 cm, sometimes reaching 1 meter. The plant has dense, leathery, deep green foliage.

The inflorescences are large heads with a diameter of 10–25 cm with creamy-white bracts and a cone of fluffy white stamens. The variety is characterized by a long flowering period and is suitable for use in cut flowers due to the strength of the stems.

The plant is drought tolerant after establishment, requires a sunny location or partial shade, as well as well-drained acidic soils. Frost resistance is limited, sensitivity to temperatures below 0°C is possible, and it is prone to chlorosis with improper substrate composition.
