Description

A brand new Estonian selection originally from Hiijumaa island.

The flowers are white but the unique, permanent feature (observed over many years) of this clone is that when clumps become bigger some leaflets fail to produce chlorophyll and appear bright creamy-yellow, even if the clump was grown up from a single ‘normal’ rhizome (i.e. one producing green leaves in first years). I do not think this is a disease, simply a variegation which does not manifest until the plant or clump is mature. To stress again – this form will be all green after planting and perhaps in its next year, it will hen make yellowish leaves in the clump. I like its green/yellowish contrast and it sits very well with other forms. The flowers are white.
