Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is the result of crossing Bluecrop and Berkeley. The bush is high-growing, reaching 1.5–1.8 meters in height, upright and sufficiently compact. The variety is suitable for mechanical harvesting; berries are firm and tolerate transportation and storage well.

The ripening period occurs from August to early September. Berries are large, 1.6–2 cm in diameter and weighing up to 2–3 g, with a sweet taste and a pronounced aroma. Yields range from 5 to 9 kg per bush.

The plant possesses high winter hardiness, withstanding frosts down to -30...-34 °C, and good immunity to common diseases. The variety is self-fertile; however, cross-pollination with varieties of a similar flowering period is recommended to improve quality and yield volume.
