10 August 2026

The first variant, introduced in 1979, is a determinate bush hybrid. Its fruits are characterized by a large size, smooth surface, the presence of green shoulders, and a small scar. The variety possesses complex resistance to Alternaria stem canker, gray leaf spot, nematodes, and Fusarium wilt.

The second variant is a vigorous indeterminate beefsteak-type hybrid. Fruits weighing 230–340 g have a bright red color, slight ribbing, and firm flesh with a high lycopene content. The variety matures in approximately 72 days, is suitable for cultivation in open field and protected cultivation, and possesses high disease resistance.
