Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is part of the 'Jewel' series, developed specifically for patio containers. The plant has a naturally dwarf habit, reaching a height of about 50–55 cm. Due to high productivity, reaching 15–25 fruits per plant, the plants require support to maintain a vertical position of the stems.

The fruits have a light green, sometimes whitish-green color and an egg-shaped form. Upon reaching the size of a chicken egg, they have a firm consistency and mild flavor. When overripe, the fruits acquire a yellow hue, the flavor deteriorates, and seeds actively form inside.

The variety is classified as ornamental-edible and is suitable for cultivation in pots with a volume of 1.5–2 liters on terraces or balconies. The fruits are suitable for frying, baking, preparing salads, and Asian dishes.
