Variety description

10 August 2026

The period from germination to the start of fruiting is 45–55 days. The plant forms a vigorous bush with lateral shoots of medium length. Bee pollination is required for fruit set.

The fruits have a spindle shape and a small-tubercled surface with white pubescence. The flesh is juicy, without bitterness. The yield is for universal use, suitable for fresh consumption, canning, and pickling.

The variety is resistant to Cladosporium cucumerinum, cucumber mosaic virus, and powdery mildew, and shows tolerance to downy mildew. It is intended primarily for cultivation in open field, with the use of film shelters permitted.
