A compact habit, upright and moderately spreading, 125 x 165cm, with strong stems supporting the very dense, rounded, broadly conical panicles. Leaves yellow-green, stems greenish with white lenticels, pink flushed below, turning brown during and after flowering. Fertile florets are few, so the panicle is coloured by the crowded sterile florets, which are white becoming pink flushed. Slight fragrance. Suitable for small gardens.
