Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has medium vigor and a spreading, spherical crown. The leaves are dark green, matte, and broadly elliptical in shape. Fruits vary from small to medium and have a flat-spherical or broadly conical shape. The ground color of the skin is light green with an intense violet-red blush.

The flesh of the fruit is greenish-white, sometimes with a reddish tint under the skin, tender and juicy. The variety enters fruiting in the 5th–6th year. The plant is not self-fertile and requires the presence of pollinator varieties to ensure yield. The variety is drought-tolerant, but susceptible to scab in case of excess moisture.
