Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety has an upright columnar habit and reaches a height of 45–90 cm. The leaves are medium-sized, up to 5 cm, colored gray-green with a creamy-white margin along the edge. Due to sterility, the variety practically does not flower, which allows the plant to constantly maintain vegetative activity.

The period from planting to the start of active harvesting is 75–90 days. The leaves possess a basil aroma with a lemon undertone. The variety is resistant to lodging and downy mildew, but is thermophilic and sensitive to frost. It is used in landscape design and cooking.
