Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is intended for high-tech cultivation, including automated methods for producing baby leaves and growing whole heads. The plant has an upright habit and firm leaves, and is distinguished by good texture and keeping quality.

The variety has high resistance (HR) to currant-lettuce aphid (Nasonovia ribisnigri, race 0), downy mildew (Bremia lactucae, races 29–41EU) and tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV), as well as intermediate resistance (IR) to Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lactucae, races 1, 4).

The variety is characterized by a high maturation rate: from 20 to 24 days for baby leaf harvesting and from 35 to 40 days for whole heads.
