The plant forms a voluminous, dense rosette with strongly ruffled leaves of a light green shade. The variety is early-maturing; the vegetation period lasts from 40 to 50 days. The weight of a marketable head is 400–600 g; the leaves possess a crunchy texture and lack bitterness.

The variety possesses high resistance to downy mildew (races Bl: 29–37, 39, 40 EU) and currant-lettuce aphid (Nr:0), as well as intermediate resistance to lettuce mosaic virus. The plant is resistant to bolting, internal necrosis, and tipburn.
