Beautiful variety that was developed in 1950. It grows compactly, produces many, very aromatic, strong green heads and is also suitable for cooler regions. After harvesting the main head, countless side shoots appear. It is appreciated for its beautiful color and good taste. As this variety is relatively frost-hardy and tolerates cold better than heat, it is best sown late so that it can be harvested in spring.
