Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms round, thick leaves of a medium-green color. The plant is characterized by a very upright growth habit, which, combined with leaf quality, makes it suitable for mechanized harvesting.

The hybrid possesses a fast growth rate and high yield. The variety demonstrates medium resistance to bolting, as well as high resistance to downy mildew (races 1–19) and the fungal disease Stemphylium vesicarium.
