The hybrid is suitable for open field cultivation. The plant is vigorous, with a productivity of 4–6 fruits per plant. The fruits are round, slightly flattened, and have a red-orange skin with light stripes.
The flesh of the fruit is orange, dense, and juicy, with a characteristic nutty or chestnut flavor. The hybrid has intermediate resistance to Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV), Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV), and Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV).
The produce is uniform and suitable for transport and the fresh market. When stored, consumption shortly after harvest is recommended to maintain taste qualities and structural density.
