Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the long-day Spanish type. The maturity period is 115–120 days after sowing. The bulbs have a round or round-cuboid shape, a diameter of 9–12 cm and a weight of 130–300 g, with individual specimens reaching 700 g. The outer scales are brown, the flesh is snow-white, juicy, sweet, and without pronounced bitterness.

The plant is characterized by high bulb density and good retention of outer scales, which ensures storage for up to six months and suitability for mechanical harvesting. It possesses resistance to Fusarium basal rot, downy mildew, root rots, bolting, as well as heat, high humidity, and sunburn.

The hybrid is intended for direct sowing in open field. It is used for fresh consumption and for industrial processing.
