Russian Cossack is a recent variety so it can have minor variations in rare cases. We assume that sometimes the fruits may have too little anthocyanin. However, our fruits (you can see them in our photo) have an excellent ‘suntan’ and are of a bright color. The fruits must preserve all of their characteristics if the plants receive enough light and moderate heat.
