Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is recommended for early cultivation cycles, including planting in January or early February. The fruits have an intense yellow skin color, which serves as a visual indicator of the optimal maturity stage for harvest.

The produce is characterized by high quality and a sugar content at the level of 17–18° Brix. The hybrid possesses resistance to powdery mildew and aphids, which contributes to the good sanitary condition of the plants.

The variety belongs to the Sunup line and is intended for use both in the fresh market and in the minimally processed produce segment.
