Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree reaches a height of 3–4 meters, sometimes up to 5–8 meters, and has a dense, broadly rounded crown. The branches are prone to bending towards the ground under the weight of the fruits. The plant possesses good winter hardiness but is sensitive to pests and susceptible to fire blight.

The fruits are apple-shaped or round-pyriform, often ribbed, and have a lemon-yellow color when fully ripe. The flesh is firm, juicy, yellowish in color, with a pronounced aroma. The fruit weight varies from 200 to 300 g, sometimes reaching 700 g.

The variety is partially self-fertile; for a stable yield, the presence of pollinators is recommended, for example, the Vranjska variety. Fruit ripening occurs in the first half to mid-October. The variety is primarily industrial, used for processing into jams, preserves, juices, and alcoholic beverages.
