Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is mid-season, the period from emergence to technical maturity is 80–115 days. The plant is tall, erect or semi-erect, and quickly forms foliage. The tubers have an oval-round shape, yellow slightly netted skin, and dark yellow flesh; the weight of a marketable tuber varies from 104 to 200 grams.

The starch content in the tubers is 14.8–21%, culinary type is B–C. The variety is characterized by high keeping quality at the level of 93–95%. It is resistant to potato wart, golden nematode, viruses, leaf roll, blackleg, as well as late blight and common scab.

Due to a long dormancy period, vernalization is recommended before planting. It is recommended to plant tubers 1–2 cm deeper than usual, and nitrogen fertilizer doses should be controlled during cultivation.
