Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is early-maturing, the period from emergence to leaf lodging takes 86 to 100 days. The bulb has a round or obovate shape, medium neck thickness, and a weight of 56–65 grams. The outer dry scales are brown with a yellowish tint; the inner juicy scales are white. The plant is characterized by being two- to three-germ.

The taste of the bulbs varies from semi-sharp to sharply pungent. The hybrid has good firmness and is suitable for fresh consumption, but its shelf life is up to 3 months. The plant is noted for high tolerance to Fusarium basal rot and pink root rot.
