Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by mutation breeding (irradiation) of the diploid 'Kinnow' variety to reduce the seed count. The fruits have a flattened shape, a bright orange smooth thin rind that is easily peeled, and juicy dark-orange flesh with a rich sweet taste. On average, one fruit contains 2–3 seeds.

The tree is characterized by vigorous growth, an upright crown shape, and high yield, entering production in the third year. The variety is classified as mid-late; the fruits ripen in winter and can remain on the tree until April. A tendency toward alternate bearing has been noted, which can be managed agrotechnically.

The plant is well adapted to hot and dry climatic conditions, which makes it suitable for commercial cultivation in regions with similar climates. Due to the ability of the fruits to remain on the branches for a long time without loss of marketable quality, the variety provides flexibility during harvest.
