Variety description
10 August 2026
The variety was obtained by crossing a diploid 'Comune' clementine and a tetraploid 'Tarocco' orange using in vitro embryo rescue technology. The plant is characterized by high productivity and a small number of thorns.
The fruits are suitable for the fresh market, and their weight typically exceeds 150 g. Due to their triploid nature, the fruits are genetically seedless. The flesh is pigmented with anthocyanins, and the fruits are juicy and easy to peel. Harvesting begins in mid-November.
