Variety description

10 August 2026

Butterhead lettuce variety intended for cultivation in protected ground during the winter period. The plant forms a tulip-shaped head with long, thin, dull pale green leaves that have a silvery shade on the underside. The rosette is tall and upright, with a flat, closed base.

The variety possesses resistance to Bremia lactucae downy mildew races and Botrytis infection. It is characterized by slow browning of the head base after cutting, which simplifies packaging processes. The variety has demonstrated stable head weight gain, starting from early harvest dates.
