Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant has a semi-upright crown shape and high vigor. The variety requires cross-pollination to obtain a full yield. Chilling requirements are approximately 200 hours, making it suitable for climatic zones with mild winters.

The berries are large, firm, and sweet, with a powdery blue surface and a dry picking scar, which ensures the transportability of the produce. The variety is characterized by an early ripening period. Yield is estimated as moderate.

The variety is susceptible to a number of diseases, including anthracnose, leaf spot, and Phytophthora root rot, and plant longevity is often rated as below average. Due to the early flowering period, there is a risk of damage from spring frosts.
