Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a bush type and belongs to the early-maturing group. One of the plant's structural features is the location of the pods above the foliage, which simplifies the harvesting process.

The fleshy pods have no parchment layer or fibers. The fruits are suitable for use at early stages as extra-fine type beans or as regular green snap beans. The plant possesses drought tolerance.
