Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is vigorous, energetic, capable of setting fruit even on the upper clusters. The variety is intended for mid-early production in open field and greenhouse conditions.

Fruits are round and smooth, weighing 180–200 g, with no green shoulder at the stem end. They have a firm consistency, are resistant to cracking, have a long shelf life, and possess high market qualities.

A key feature is high tolerance to extremely high temperatures, as well as general resistance to pathogens.
