Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a vigorous, tall, and compact bush. Flower stalks can be located both below and above the foliage, but due to the weight of the ripening fruits, they tend to lie on the ground, which requires the use of mulching.

The fruits have a blunt conical shape, sometimes with cockscomb-shaped or flattened specimens, with an average weight of 25–60 g. The glossy skin is orange-red in color; the flesh is pale red, juicy, and fleshy. The achenes are large and embedded in the surface of the berry.

The variety is late-maturing; ripening occurs approximately one week after the 'Sonata' variety. The fruits are suitable for fresh consumption and processing, and possess good transportability with moderate keeping quality of up to 3 days in a refrigerator.

The variety demonstrates resistance to Verticillium wilt, Phytophthora, and powdery mildew. Late flowering helps the plant avoid damage from spring frosts, which, combined with high winter hardiness, allows it to be grown in both amateur and industrial conditions.
