Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety has a mid-late to late maturity group. The plant is characterized by an indeterminate growth type, with branches of medium length extending from the main stem at a 45° angle. Leaf blades have sparse pubescence.

The plant is distinguished by a rapid initial growth rate and early onset of fruiting. It responds positively to the application of plant growth regulators, which contributes to increased yield. The variety exhibits high resistance to drought, as well as to a wide range of fungal and bacterial diseases, including Verticillium wilt.
