Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the mid-early category; the period from seedling emergence to technical maturity ranges from 100 to 110 days. The plant is characterized as vigorous and stable, reaching a height of about 30 cm.

The root vegetables have a uniform round or round-oval shape. The skin is bright yellow or golden-orange; the flesh is golden-yellow, tender, and juicy, without distinct rings or coarse fibers. The taste is characterized as mild and sweet, with a less pronounced "earthy" note than that of red beets.

The variety is intended for fresh consumption, canning, and culinary processing. When boiled, the root vegetables retain their color and do not stain accompanying ingredients in dishes.
