Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid is characterized by an open habit and upright stems, which simplifies plant maintenance and the harvesting process. The fruits have glossy dark green skin, maintain a uniform straight shape throughout the entire fruiting period, and are suitable for long-term storage.

The plant is intended primarily for greenhouse cultivation and is oriented toward the professional fresh market. A key feature of the variety is intermediate resistance to Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV), which allows for the maintenance of yield in regions with a high infectious background.
