Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a triploid hybrid that propagates exclusively by vegetative means. The variety is characterized by vigorous growth and is capable of reaching a height of 3–4 meters by the third year of vegetation, exceeding traditional non-selected forms in productivity and resistance.

During the creation of the variety, special attention was paid to the development of the canopy for efficient light interception, increasing resistance to stress factors, as well as adaptability for cultivation on marginal low-productivity lands.
