Variety description
10 August 2026
The shrub reaches 1 meter in height and width after 10 years of growth. Leaves are evergreen, matte, dark green, broadly lanceolate, up to 11.5 cm long and up to 3.5 cm wide. Young leaf blades have a reddish-brown tint.
Flowers are large, up to 8 cm in diameter, gathered in inflorescences of 12–16 pieces. In the bud stage, they have an intense salmon-pink color; upon opening, they become pink with a creamy-yellow throat and a greenish-yellow pattern on the upper petal. The edges of the petals are slightly wavy.
The variety is winter-hardy and withstands temperature drops down to -22 °C. It prefers semi-shaded or shaded areas with acidic, humus-rich, moderately moist soils without water stagnation.
