Variety description

10 August 2026

The medium-sized tree has a compact, rounded crown with glossy evergreen foliage. Young specimens may have thorns. The variety was obtained by crossing «Wilking» and «Kincy».

The medium-sized fruits have a deeply oblate shape without a neck. The bright orange peel with large pores has a bumpy texture but separates easily from the juicy flesh. The fruits ripen starting from March and can remain on the tree until the end of summer.

The plant is well adapted to cultivation in containers. The variety is prone to alternate bearing, with peel quality depending on the crop load and the age of the tree.
