Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms round-flat heads of a saturated green or light green color with moderate density. The leaves are characterized by a dense, crunchy structure, and the weight of one plant is on average about 500 g or more.

The plant possesses resistance to downy mildew, necrosis, tip burn, leaf rot, and green lettuce aphid. The variety exhibits high resistance to bolting at elevated temperatures, as well as the ability to withstand spring and autumn frosts and insufficient lighting.

The variety is suitable for sale on the fresh market and for processing due to its fast growth rate and uniformity of heads. Depending on the source, it is mentioned as a variety or as an F1 hybrid.
