Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a large rosette of glossy dark green leaves with a contrasting yellowish heart. The plant is characterized by significant mass and large size. The breeding utilizes Knox technology, which significantly slows down the oxidation of sap at cut points, extending the shelf life of the produce.

The variety possesses high resistance to lettuce downy mildew (races Bl:29-40EU) and lettuce aphid (Nr:0). It is intended for cultivation in autumn, winter, and spring periods. Suitable for sale as whole heads and for the preparation of salad mixes.
