Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a rosette 20–30 cm high and 25–35 cm in diameter. The leaves are distinguished by a tender, buttery texture and a sweetish taste, retaining their quality characteristics for a long time without becoming bitter.

The plant belongs to the fast-growing group: harvesting at the baby-leaf stage is possible in 2–3 weeks, with full maturity reached in 45–55 days. The variety is characterized by high resistance to bolting and the effects of high temperatures.

It is an open-pollinated variety suitable for cultivation in open field and protected cultivation, as well as in containers. It is used primarily fresh.
