Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant belongs to the Botrytis group of Brassica oleracea and is a vigorous spreading bush with large glaucous-green leaves, the height of which can reach 1 meter. The inflorescences consist of conical pyramids that follow Fibonacci numbers.

The vegetation period usually ranges from 75 to 100 days. The crop is demanding in terms of growing conditions and is sensitive to fluctuations in temperature and humidity. The produce has a dense texture and a mild creamy-nutty taste without bitterness.

In culinary use, it is consumed fresh or thermally processed. The designation as "public domain" indicates the absence of fixed rights of a specific breeding company to this cultivar population.
