Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is mid-season or mid-late, with a maturation period of 85–110 days. The plant is vining, with vine lengths reaching 100–200 cm or more. A characteristic feature is the spotting not only of the fruits but also of the leaves.

Fruits are oval or elongated-oval in shape, with a weight varying from 5 to 20 kg. The flesh is juicy and sweet; the color depending on the strain can be pink-red, red, or yellow-orange. The thick and hard skin provides good keeping quality and transportability.

The variety is non-hybrid, suitable for seed saving. Intended for amateur cultivation and farm enterprises; the fruits can also be used for pickling.
