Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant possesses a powerful root system and dense foliage that protects the fruits from the sun. The hybrid is adapted to various growing conditions, including open field and film shelters, and is suitable for fresh market sales and processing.

The fruits have a light green color with dark stripes and intense red sweet flesh with a sugar content of 10–11%. Due to the presence of the "shelf-life gene," the fruits retain their marketable qualities during transport and storage for up to 4 weeks.

The hybrid exhibits high stress tolerance and resistance to Fusarium races 0 and 1.
