Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is of a semi-bush type, compact, 40–60 cm in height. The variety is early-maturing, with a vegetation period of 90–95 days. Yield is 2–4 fruits per plant.

The fruits have a round, slightly flattened shape, orange skin, and deep orange flesh. The peduncle breaks off easily, which requires caution during harvesting.

The variety is for table use. The stated keeping quality of the fruits allows for sales from September to January, although during field trials sensitivity to sunburn and losses during long-term storage were noted.
