Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is early-maturing, with a vegetation period of about 100 days. The bulbs have a round or slightly tear-shaped form with a raised shoulder. The outer scales are reddish-brown in color, and the flesh varies from white to ivory. The taste is characterized as mild, pungent-sweet.

The height of the plant's green mass ranges from 20–25 cm to 60–90 cm during the active development phase. The hybrid possesses stress tolerance, is not prone to bolting, and demonstrates improved disease resistance. Cultivation from seeds allows for avoiding viral diseases typical of vegetative propagation.

The plant is intended for cultivation via seedlings or direct sowing into the ground in spring. The crop prefers loose, fertile, well-drained soils. The produce is suitable for universal use in cooking and is characterized by high keeping quality, maintaining commercial properties for up to a year.
