Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant has vigorous growth and forms dark green foliage with strong stems. The bulbs have a rounded shape with a flat base, are distinguished by a dense, crunchy structure, an intense aroma, and a low tendency to oxidize after cutting.

The variety is early-maturing, ripening 7–15 days faster than similar varieties depending on the season. At a recommended planting density of 10–12 plants per square meter, optimal fruit shape is achieved. The hybrid has good keeping quality and maintains high freshness.
