Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is diploid and belongs to the Solanum phureja group, unlike most modern tetraploid Solanum tuberosum varieties. It was developed as part of a breeding program to adapt South American landraces to long-day conditions.

Tubers have an oval-elongated shape. Research on the variety touched upon such parameters as phosphorus use efficiency and the intensity of root system development during the juvenile period. The variety has a specific starch texture and cooks quickly.
