The variety belongs to the western shipper type (cantaloupe melon). The fruits are round, the surface is covered with a pronounced netting, and the fruits lack sutures. The flesh is dark-orange and characterized by a firm consistency. The period from flowering to commercial maturity, characterized by fruit detachment from the peduncle, is approximately 42 days.
The plant possesses genetic resistance to Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis, race 2) and powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca fuliginea, race 1). The line is primarily used in breeding programs to improve fruit quality characteristics and increase sugar content.
