Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a male hybrid, which allows energy to be directed towards yield formation instead of seed production. The spears are characterized by an intense purple color, uniformity, and a large stem diameter with a tight tip. Plant height during the flowering phase reaches 120–150 cm; the foliage is upright and vigorous.

The variety possesses strong immunity to a range of diseases, including mosaic virus, curly top, bacteriosis, and root rots, and is adapted to various climatic conditions. The taste of the spears is described as sweet and tender with a nutty note; the content of fibrous lignin at the base is reduced.

The produce is versatile in use, suitable for fresh consumption, grilling, or quick heat treatment. The variety is intended for open field cultivation; the use of mini-tunnel technologies to accelerate the start of the harvest season is permitted.
