Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is early-ripening; technical maturity of the fruits occurs 58 days after emergence. The plant is of the bush type, compact, reaching a height of 60–90 cm and a width of 90–120 cm.

The fruits are characterized by a curved shape with a "neck"; the surface can be bumpy or warty. The skin is thin and yellow in color. The flesh has a tender, creamy consistency and a sweetish taste.

The variety is for culinary use; harvesting young fruits 13–15 cm in length is recommended. Due to the thin skin, the fruits are not suitable for long-term storage and require consumption soon after harvesting.
