Core Characteristics: The flower color is primarily lemon yellow or yellowish-white. Some flowers occasionally display magenta, creamy yellow markings, or even unusual forms that are half-yellow and half-purple or with light purple streaks.
Cultivation Performance: Strong drought and cold resistance, able to grow normally in temperatures ranging from -15°C to 38°C, adapting to the climate of most regions. Prefers slightly acidic sandy loam with high humus content. Raised bed cultivation is recommended to ensure good soil drainage and prevent root rot caused by waterlogging.
