More information

This variety shows exceptional disease resistance. Buds are magenta. Height 60–70 cm. ADR 2001.

Low-maintenance and highly disease-resistant; according to the originators, suitable for minimal-care cultivation. Conical raspberry buds open into simple, small, pearlescent pink flowers with a slight purple tinge. Bushes reach about 80 cm, with sturdy yet pliable shoots. Dense dark green leaves have a strong lustre. Flowering produces large inflorescences (up to 30 flowers) that almost merge into an umbrella-like cluster, comparable to phlox. The cultivar is suitable for low hedges, borders, and mass plantings. This French selection is recognised in Germany (ADR 2001).
