Camila potato, registered and protected as BRS F63, is a cultivar for the fresh market, with oval tubers of attractive appearance, having shallow eyes, yellow and smooth skin, and light yellow flesh. It presents medium specific gravity (dry matter), which allows greater culinary versatility than 'Agata'.

The vegetative growth cycle and dormancy are medium. It presents high productive potential, with high percentage of marketable tubers. It is moderately resistant to greening. Concerning physiological disorders in the tubers, 'BRS F63' (Camila) is similar to 'Agata' and 'Asterix' in crops of subtropical ecosystem, but the incidence increases in plantations outside the Winter crop in tropical ecosystem.
