Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms mature plants up to 35 cm in height and width. The leaf blade has a slightly blistered structure and a rich green color. The variety is characterized by a rapid head formation period.

The plant is suitable for sowing in the period from February to May and from August to September, with harvesting possible from April to September. Due to its resistance to low temperatures, the variety is optimally suited for obtaining an autumn harvest.

The variety is sometimes used in scientific phytopathological research as a specimen for testing resistance to various diseases, such as lettuce mosaic virus or downy mildew.
