A mid-season, indeterminate slicer variety. It grew in my greenhouse. The fruits are glossy, slightly flattened, slightly ribbed pink beefsteaks, with a wonderful balanced taste where sweetness predominates. It made it into my top ten tastiest new varieties of 2016.
The fruits are large, meaty, and have few seeds. The yield is above average, but I would like it to be higher))) Therefore, I will definitely be “taming” (acclimatizing) this variety.
