Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a dense bush 60 to 100 cm tall, in some cases reaching 160 cm. The leaves are dark green, lanceolate with a serrated margin. Inflorescences are spike-shaped, densely covered with indigo-colored flowers with prominent protruding stamens.

Flowering lasts from June to September–October; when faded flower stalks are pruned, re-flowering is possible. The variety has strong stems, is resistant to powdery mildew and leaf spot, and withstands frosts down to -34 °C. It is used in landscaping and is suitable for cutting and container cultivation.
