Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has moderate vigor, reaching a height of 5 to 8 meters, and forms a wide, dense, rounded crown. Upon ripening, the fruits acquire a bright yellow color and have a rounded pear-shaped or apple-shaped form.

The fruit flesh is sweet, fine-textured, and less astringent and hard compared to other varieties. When heat-treated, the fruits retain their shape and can change color to pink or deep red. Harvesting begins in October.

The variety is self-fertile, shows resistance to leaf spot, and tolerates temperature drops down to -25 °C. The plant requires a sunny, warm, and protected location for optimal fruiting.
