Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a vigorous climbing vine, which is recommended to be grown on supports to obtain straight fruits. When grown on the ground, stems can root at the nodes. The ripening period is from 110 to 125 days.

The fruits have a characteristic curved shape with a club-like enlargement at the end, their weight varies from 2 to 6 kg. The rind is smooth and thin: light green in young fruits and beige or light brown in mature ones. The flesh is bright orange, dense, sweet with a nutty flavor.

The seed cavity is small, seeds are concentrated only in the enlarged part of the fruit, the neck is practically devoid of seeds. The variety has high resistance to a number of cucurbit diseases, including powdery mildew, and is resistant to certain pests. Mature fruits store well.
