Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a hybrid obtained by crossing 'Alsószentiváni 117' and 'Pedro'. The tree has a medium-sized crown, tolerates cold well, and adapts to various growing conditions. Late bud break in early May allows the variety to avoid spring frosts.

The fruits are about 34 mm in size and have a regular, slightly ribbed shape. The kernel accounts for about 50% of the nut weight, is characterized by a light color, and is easily extracted from the shell. The variety is partially self-fertile; for higher yields, the pollinators 'Milotai Kései', 'Fernor', or 'Chandler' are recommended.

The variety is considered high-yielding with up to 50% of the yield on lateral buds. The level of resistance to bacterial blight is assessed as relative, with conflicting data in different studies regarding susceptibility to this disease.
