Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the group of Butterhead lettuces. It was mentioned in a number of scientific publications in the 1980s and 1990s, in particular in studies on the control of the pathogen Bremia lactucae, which causes downy mildew.

Data on the morphological characteristics of the plant and current product quality indicators are absent in modern catalogs. The variety is intended for fresh consumption, however, it is currently not listed among those offered by the manufacturer for professional cultivation.
