Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the northern highbush group. The bush reaches 1.5–2 m in height; shoots are strong and upright, which facilitates mechanical harvesting. Fruiting usually begins from the second ten-day period of July.

The berries have a round, slightly flattened shape, a diameter of 16–18 mm, and a weight of up to 2–2.5 g. The surface of the berries is light blue with an intense waxy bloom. Flavor qualities are characterized as sweet with slight acidity and aroma.

The variety possesses resistance to Monilinia vaccinii-corymbosi, twig blight, and fruit mummy berry; winter hardiness is estimated at levels down to -25...-35°C. The plant is demanding of well-drained acidic soils with high organic matter content.

Although the variety is self-fertile, cross-pollination with other varieties of the same flowering period is recommended to increase yield. Purpose is universal: for industrial cultivation, home gardening, fresh market sales, and processing.
