Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the late maturity group with a growing season of 110 to 140 days. The tubers have an oblong-oval shape, smooth yellow skin, and shallow eyes. The cream-colored flesh is characterized by a firm structure, with a dry matter content of about 20.9%.

The potato is intended for table use: it maintains its shape well during boiling, which allows it to be used for salads, frying, and steaming. The variety shows relative resistance to common scab and moderate sensitivity to late blight. The keeping quality of tubers during storage is 5–7 months, and yield reaches 61 tons per hectare.
