Breeding. The CAAS Tea Research Institute selected this cultivar from an artificial cross with Pulian Tongyuan as the seed parent and Longjing 43 as the pollen parent. It was registered in 2020 as GPD 茶树(2020)330044.

Use. The breeder recommends it for flat-shaped and baked green tea. Its spring development dates are observations from Hangzhou, not a fixed picking calendar for every growing area.
