Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a crop of the species Solanum tuberosum L. The plant is characterized by slow emergence and later canopy closure compared to the Russet Burbank variety. Tubers have an elongated shape, white flesh, and light skin with a pronounced netted pattern; eyes are shallow.

The tubers are distinguished by a high dry matter content and low sucrose content, which contributes to suitability for industrial processing. The variety possesses the ability for a long dormancy period, ensuring high keeping quality during storage. It has moderate resistance to late blight of leaves and tubers.
