Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the pasture-hay type. Due to its erect growth habit, it is more suitable for hay mowing compared to extremely pasture-type forms of timothy.

The plant is late-flowering and possesses the capacity for intensive tillering. The variety is distinguished by good productivity, longevity under grazing, and high resistance to rust. During the winter period, it retains its green color, exhibiting signs of being evergreen.
