Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant belongs to the frisée/krulandijvie type and has medium to dark green leaves with highly serrated edges. The variety possesses high vigor and an upright leaf position, which facilitates the harvesting process and reduces the risk of leaf blade damage.

The variety forms voluminous plants with a high percentage of blanched heart. It exhibits good resistance to leaf tip burn and high resistance to bolting.

The produce is suitable both for sale on the fresh market and for industrial processing, including the segments of cleaned and pre-cut ready-to-use products.
