Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety has a ripening period of about 88 days. The fruits are characterized by an elongated shape and a weight of 8 to 10 kg; the fruit skin is dark green. This hybrid is intended for local markets.

In agronomic publications, information about this variety is fragmentary. There is often confusion with the "Баронесса F1" hybrid, which belongs to the "Sugar Baby" type, has round-oval fruits weighing 8–12 kg, and a mid-early ripening period.
