The plant is an evergreen trailing shrub 20–40 cm in height with shoots spreading up to 1–2 meters in diameter. Leaves are small, leathery, deep green, turning a reddish or bronze shade in winter. The variety is self-fertile but requires planting in acidic, moist, peaty soils.

Berries are large, oval-shaped, reaching 20–25 mm in diameter, with a sweet-and-sour taste and good keeping quality. Harvest takes place from mid-September to early October. The variety is characterized by high winter hardiness, withstanding temperature drops down to –30°С, and possesses natural immunity to diseases.
