Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant has a compact habit with a height of 50 to 80 cm, the stems and leaves have a silvery tint, the flower sepals are slightly prickly. The variety is well adapted to open field conditions, resistant to wind and sunlight, and suitable for container cultivation.

The fruits are round or oval in shape, reaching 14 cm in length and weighing 200–250 g. The skin color is white with pink streaks, which darkens to lilac in bright sunlight. The fruit flesh is dense, low-seeded, has a delicate texture, and is resistant to deformation when sliced.

The harvest period lasts from early July to mid-September, provided it is sown in March. At full biological maturity, the skin color changes to yellow, which indicates seed maturation and a decrease in the fruit's consumer qualities.
