The plant forms upright, slightly curved stems at the top with a height of about 2 meters, covered with small, sharp prickles. The variety produces a large number of root suckers, reaching 20–25 per meter.
The medium-sized berries have a nearly round shape, a bright red color, and a pleasant taste and aroma. The variety belongs to the mid-season maturity group: harvesting begins in the first ten days of July and lasts for about four weeks. The fruits do not have high transportability, and therefore frequent harvesting is recommended to prevent over-ripening.
The yield of the variety is stable and high; the plant responds positively to drip irrigation. The variety is recommended for industrial cultivation and is often used in agronomic research as a standard for comparison in the Baltic region.
