Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a mid-early hybrid with a vegetation period of approximately 115 days from sowing. The plant forms dense bulbs of a round or elongated shape; often two large bulbs develop from a single seed. The tunic scales are reddish-brown in color, and the internal flesh is white.

The produce is distinguished by a high content of dry matter and sugar, as well as good keeping quality during storage. The hybrid possesses resistance to bolting. The variety is intended for commercial production and is suitable both for harvesting mature bulbs and for growing for greens.
