Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant has a semi-bush growth habit with moderately developed shoots, which allows it to be grown in small areas. The variety is characterized by high yield and good suitability of fruits for transport and long-term storage.

Fruits of spherical or slightly flattened shape have thin bright red skin with pronounced longitudinal grooves and cream-colored stripes. The thick, juicy, and sweet flesh has an intense orange color, and the seed cavity is small.

The variety is characterized by a high content of dry matter and sugars, which makes it suitable for processing into juices, making jams and marinades, as well as use in baking. The fruits are resistant to damage due to the absence of voids in the seed cavity.
