Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is an all-male hybrid, which allows the plant to direct resources toward root system development and shoot formation, avoiding energy expenditure on seeds. This ensures high yield, exceeding the performance of the Jersey Giant variety.

The plant is suitable for producing large marketable spears and possesses genetic resistance to rust and tolerance to Fusarium wilt. The variety is recommended for establishing professional commercial plantations.
