Variety description

10 August 2026

The ripening period of the hybrid is 57–67 days. The plant has medium growth vigor and a well-developed root system, which allows it to adapt to different climatic conditions and irregular irrigation. The hybrid is suitable for cultivation in open field and under temporary plastic covers.

The oval-shaped fruits are covered with a dense striped rind that protects the flesh from sunburn and damage. The flesh is characterized by juiciness, a crisp texture, and a sweet taste. The produce is suitable for sale on the fresh market due to its high transportability and keeping quality.
