Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid belongs to the extra-early or early-maturing types. The ripening period is 60–65 days from transplanting. The plant is characterized as powerful, vigorous and compact, with vines of medium length. Foliage density is medium, which ensures protection of fruits from sunburn.

The fruits are round in shape, dark green with stripes, and have a dense rind of medium thickness. The flesh is intensely scarlet in color, dense, crispy, with a sugar content of 11–12% and a small number of seeds. The hybrid is resistant to Fusarium and anthracnose and is adapted to various weather conditions.

The fruits are suitable for long-distance transport and storage for up to 3–3.5 months. The hybrid is intended for cultivation in the open field, under film or agrofibre and is oriented toward fresh market sales.
