The plant reaches a height of 25 cm and a diameter of 30 cm, forming an attractive head with a compact stalk and an average weight of about 500 grams. The salad leaves have a medium size, a medium-elliptical shape, and a yellowish-green color without anthocyanin, with a beautiful smooth and dense green leaf blade. The head is narrowly elliptical, dense, characterized by high density and large size, which ensures resistance to curling during field storage.
