Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is the result of selection from the breeding material of the Valkoinen Hollantilainen variety. The bush features an upright growth habit and reaches a height of about 1 meter. The berries are yellowish-white in color, characterized as quite large, and are gathered in long clusters.

The variety belongs to the late-ripening group and is distinguished by high yield. The taste of the fruit is sweet, with a slight acidity. The plant is zoned for climatic zones I–V of Finland. Young, rapidly growing bushes may show slight susceptibility to powdery mildew and leaf spot.

The berries are suitable for fresh consumption, freezing, juice making, jam production, and winemaking. The fruits of the variety are less frequently pecked by birds compared to other types of berries.
