Guapan RZ benefits from Rijk Zwaan’s Blue Leaf™ traits.
Rijk Zwaan’s Blue Leaf™ is a natural trait, bred into our range of cucumbers. Blue Leaf™ varieties have dark, blue-green foliage and contain more chlorophyll than varieties without this particular trait. These dark leaves enable higher degrees of light absorption, which converts into more growth and fruiting. The plant is slower to yellow - it remains productive for longer, even in the case of infection with the cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus. Blue Leaf™ varieties are also better able to withstand viruses, fungi such as Fusarium and mildew, and pests such as whitefly and thrips. Learn more about Blue Leaf™
