Variety description

10 August 2026

The Varmas variety bush is of medium size with an upright-spreading habit, characterized by moderate shoot formation. The berries are large, black, with shiny skin. They are gathered in clusters of medium length and density, have a dessert taste, and easily separate from the pedicel.

The variety is distinguished by complex resistance to fungal diseases, including powdery mildew, while showing moderate susceptibility to the bud mite. The plant is characterized by winter hardiness and develops better in light soils. It is intended for fresh consumption and processing.
