Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the red multi-leaf lettuce type with an upright habit and large, glossy leaves. When the base of the head is cut, the plant separates into many ready-to-eat leaves. Knox technology provides delayed oxidation of the sap after cutting.

The plant is slow to bolt and is suitable for cultivation in open field conditions during the spring, summer, and autumn periods. It possesses high resistance to downy mildew (races Bl:29-41EU) and lettuce aphid (Nr:0), as well as intermediate resistance to Fusarium wilt (Fol:4).

The lettuce is intended both for fresh market sales and for processing, including the production of ready-to-eat packaged salads.
