Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is vigorous, with a well-developed root system, high fruit-setting ability, and resistance to stress factors. The fruits have a "tiger" skin pattern of medium thickness and excellent transportability, which ensures a high yield of marketable produce.

The sugar content in the flesh is 12–13%. The hybrid is intended for cultivation in the open field and is characterized by adaptability and high recovery capacity. The recommended planting density is 6–8 thousand plants per 1 hectare.
