Variety description

10 August 2026

The fruits of the variety are large, bright red in color. The taste is characterized as sweet, with pronounced notes of strawberry, pineapple, and pear. The variety is early; in Australian conditions, fruit ripening occurs in March.

The tree is distinguished by good yield, which does not require additional fruit thinning. The variety shows promise regarding disease resistance. The fruits are used fresh and in processing, in particular, as a raw material for cider production due to the rich fruity aroma and balanced taste.
