Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree possesses a compact fastigiate crown with branches growing parallel to the trunk, which allows it to maintain its shape without pruning. Height is typically 6 meters with a crown width of about 2 meters, though it can reach 12 meters. Young foliage has a reddish-bronze hue, becoming deep purple-red or dark maroon as it matures.

Abundant flowering occurs in early spring on leafless branches. Flowers are white or with a pinkish hue, gathered in dense clusters of 3–5. Fruits are small, up to 25 mm in diameter, and have no commercial value. The variety is characterized by high winter hardiness and moderate drought tolerance.
