Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is vigorously growing. Harvesting maturity of the fruit occurs in the period from the end of September to the first half of October. The fruit is large, covered with thin skin of a pale greenish-yellow color with fine gray-yellow pubescence. The flesh is creamy white, tender, moderately juicy, and possesses a pronounced aroma and a pleasant sour taste.

The fruit is characterized by good keeping quality and is suitable for storage until December. The variety is multipurpose, suitable for fresh consumption and industrial processing. The variety is self-incompatible; cross-pollination is required for yield, with Triumph and Vranjska varieties being suitable as pollinators.

In nurseries, the variety is grown on clonal rootstocks, such as quince MA and quince BA-29. In breeding programs, the variety was considered as a source of disease resistance.
