Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the Nantes type and forms bright orange, cylindrical root crops with a rich sweet taste. The plant has a strong, upright leaf apparatus, which simplifies mechanized harvesting.

The hybrid is suitable for early and late sowing. A key feature is high resistance to low temperatures, allowing for harvest during the winter period. The variety exhibits resistance to leaf diseases, as well as tolerance to Sclerotinia rot and cavity spot.

The produce is intended for sale on the fresh market and for long-term storage. The root crops retain their taste qualities even when left in the soil during winter months, making the variety suitable for harvesting up until January, depending on growing conditions.
