Variety description

10 August 2026

The bushes of the variety have medium density, a strong root system, and short internodes. Under the weight of the fruit, the shoots may deviate to the sides. The variety is of mid-early maturity, with berries ripening in early July.

The fruits are round, with dense skin, dry separation, and are resistant to cracking and shedding. In commercial cultivation, the yield reaches 9–10 tons per hectare. The berries are characterized by a high content of vitamin C and good transportability.

The variety has high resistance to the blackcurrant bud mite, powdery mildew, and the reversion virus, with a medium level of resistance to anthracnose. Due to the strong root system, it tolerates heat and drought well, and prefers fertile and light soils.
