Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a semi-closed head with dense bright green leaves that have a glossy surface. A characteristic feature is slow head formation, which allows for better control of harvest timing.

The plant possesses high resistance to premature shooting (bolting) and good tolerance to leaf tip burn. The variety is intended for cultivation in open field conditions and is aimed at the fresh produce market.
