• Appearance: It features masses of large, rich red to dark burgundy double flowers that completely blanket its dark green foliage.
• Growth Habit: A compact, low-mounding evergreen perennial that naturally forms a uniform, neat dome without needing intricate pinching or shearing.
• Size: Typically grows 12 to 16 inches tall and spreads beautifully to a similar width.
• Hardiness: Suited for USDA Zones 5–9, making it highly resilient in a variety of climates. 

• Sunlight: Requires full sun (4 to 6+ hours of direct light daily). Ample light is crucial for maximizing its bloom size and maintaining its tight, mounded structure. 
• Watering: Water consistently by checking the soil moisture with your finger. Pour water directly onto the soil around the edge of the pot or under the foliage; avoid wetting the leaves and center stems, which can trigger rot. 
• Soil & Drainage: If planting in the ground, ensure the soil is exceptionally well-draining. Wet, waterlogged roots during rainy spells or winter freeze are the primary cause of plant failure.
• Best Uses: Perfect for fall patio containers, garden borders, flower beds, and festive autumn displays. It is also frequently paired in mixed pots with its sister varieties like Jasoda Orange, Jasoda Yellow, and Jasoda Purple for a vibrant multi-color look
