Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is the result of crossing Cucurbita maxima and Cucurbita moschata. The growing season is 90–120 days. The plant is characterized by a powerful root system and high resistance to powdery mildew, pests, and adverse environmental conditions.

The fruits are round in shape, weighing from 2 to 6 kg, and covered with a hard dark green rind, which ensures a shelf life of up to 6 months. The flesh is intensely orange, dense, and sugary, retaining its texture during thermal processing.

A key feature is pollen sterility, which necessitates the presence of pollinator plants of other squash species flowering simultaneously for fruit set. Seeds from the fruits of this hybrid do not retain parental traits.
