Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by crossing Elsanta and Parker varieties. Plants are vigorous, up to 40 cm high, with a well-developed root system. Long flower stalks are located above the leaf level, which simplifies harvesting.

Berries weighing 20–70 g have a brick-red color with a gloss, firm juicy flesh, and a pronounced strawberry aroma. The taste is characterized as balanced sweet with a slight acidity.

The plant tolerates heat and drought well, and possesses moderate winter hardiness. Resistance to major diseases is average; susceptibility to Verticillium wilt, brown spot, powdery mildew, and rots is noted.
