Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is characterized by moderate or low growth, forming a compact bushy crown with short internodes. The leaves are medium or small in size, have an oval shape, and a dark green glossy shade.

The fruits are round, often slightly flattened at the poles, with a characteristic small "nipple" at the end surrounded by a furrow. The rind is dense and yellow upon ripening. The pulp is yellow, juicy, with low acidity and few or no seeds.

The variety is considered productive; flowering can be abundant in spring or year-round. The fruits ripen during the winter period. The plant requires protection from low temperatures, as the variety is traditionally considered an ornamental container crop.
