History
- Russian commercial variety.
- Selection from Rozovyi Gigant by GISOK. Some Russian commercial seed vendors sell regular leaf and some sell potato leaf version. These are two different varieties, but unfortunately they were given the same name. This one is a potato leaf cultivar.
- The name means 'Pink ELephant' in Russian.
- Tatiana's note: We do not support names translation, as it leads to confusion and the same variety being offered under different names. Please always use the original variety name to avoid confusion and preserve variety's roots and history. All the translated names are considered to be 'marketing' names, and not actual variety names.
Russian name: Розовый Слон
- The name means 'Pink Elephant' in Russian.
