Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained as a result of controlled crossing of parental lines. The main breeding objectives in creating this lettuce were to achieve high plant uniformity, the formation of a specific leaf type, and the fixation of resistance to downy mildew Bremia lactucae.

The plant has pronounced leaf puckering and is characterized by a darker red color compared to a number of analogs. During the development of the variety, parameters of head shape and resistance to the development of marginal leaf burn were also taken into account.
