Variety description

10 August 2026

Bushes are vigorous, upright, reaching a height of 1.5–3 meters. Shoots are strong, thornless, which simplifies plant care. The variety is mid-season, fruiting lasts about 30–40 days from the beginning of July to August.

Berries are black, glossy, firm, with a weight of 6–7 g, having a conical or round-oval shape. The taste of the fruit is dessert-like, sweet, with a light acidity and a sugar content of 10–11%. The fruits possess good transportability and are suitable for all types of processing and fresh consumption.

The plant possesses good resistance to diseases, including rosette disease, and drought tolerance. Winter hardiness is estimated as medium; at temperatures below -17°C, covering is required. The chilling requirement is 400–500 hours.
