Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is the result of a cross between UCD Moxie and UCD Warrior. The plant has a compact habit and architecture that simplifies harvesting, including the possibility of using mechanized methods and substrate cultivation.

The berries are characterized by a firm texture, pronounced aroma, and long shelf life. Long pedicels contribute to reducing the risk of fruit damage in commercial conditions.

The variety exhibits genetic resistance to Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum) and Neopestalotiopsis, and also possesses moderate resistance to Phytophthora crown rot (Phytophthora cactorum).
