Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized, possesses high winter hardiness and growth vigor. The variety is considered an autumn one; fruits ripen early, often in August. The tree is characterized by moderate resistance to major diseases, including scab, but can be susceptible to fire blight.

Fruits vary from medium to large size, have a round or flattened-round shape, sometimes with ribbing. The light yellowish-green skin is covered with bright red stripes or a blurred blush. The flesh is tender, juicy, cream or yellowish in color, and has a refreshing sweet and sour taste.

The variety is universal. Fresh fruits are consumed during the period of optimal maturity, as they are not intended for long-term storage and quickly lose their marketability. In cooking, they are valued for their ability to soften quickly, which makes them suitable for purees, sauces, and baking.
