Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree or shrub reaches a height of 2 to 5 meters and has a widely spreading, sparse crown. The plant is characterized by a slow growth rate with an annual increment of 30–50 cm. The leaves are ovate, medium-green, with a yellow autumn color. Large flowers 5–7 cm in diameter have a white or light pink hue and bloom from April to June.

The fruits ripen from early October; they are large, weighing up to 250 g, rounded, sometimes ribbed, with golden-yellow skin. The flesh is firm, aromatic, yellowish or white in color, and becomes soft when heat-treated. The variety is self-fertile but requires pollinators to increase yield. The plant is characterized by winter hardiness and resistance to wood diseases.
