Variety description

10 August 2026

The ripening period of the hybrid varies from 95 to 110 days. Plants reach a height of 1.8–2.1 meters, have a strong single stem and broad dark green leaves.

The grain is characterized by a bright orange color and an expansion ratio of about 34 units. Upon popping, about 80% of the grains acquire a spherical or mushroom shape, which makes them convenient for applying caramel coatings.

The variety has high resistance to common rust, helminthosporium leaf spot, gray leaf spot, and lodging. It shows intermediate resistance to bacterial wilt.
