Variety description

10 August 2026

The period from emergence to the beginning of fruiting is 40–45 days. The plant is bush-type and compact. The hybrid is characterized by a long fruiting period and the ability to form fruits without insect pollination, which allows it to be grown in greenhouse conditions.

The fruits are elongated-cylindrical in shape, dark green with a glossy tint, reaching a length of 16–22 cm and a weight of up to 500 g. The flesh is light, creamy, tender, and of moderate density and juiciness. Due to the parthenocarpic type of development, the fruits are virtually seedless.

The hybrid is intended for fresh consumption, culinary processing, and canning.
