Details

Olga Petryszyn combined the texture of one parent ('Christmas Tree Gala') and the size of the other ('Elatior'). Slightly shiny, pointed blue-green leaves each surrounded by a wide band of creamy white edge with jagged indentations boasting streaks of pale blue-green, melting to a dark green center. It is reported to be a wide spreading clump with age.
