Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the long-day onion group and is characterized by vigorous leaf development. Maturity periods vary from 100 to 120 days. The bulbs are round in shape, 6–10 cm in diameter, and weigh 80–270 g. The inner scales are white and succulent, and the taste is rated as semi-sharp.

The plant possesses high resistance to Fusarium wilt, pink root rot, and thrips damage. The dense outer scales allow for mechanized harvesting. The variety is suitable for long-term storage (up to 8–9 months) and is resistant to sprouting; it is intended for cultivation in open field.
