Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was discovered in the USA as a chance seedling, often described as an improved variety of the Transparent type or an early-ripening variety of the Golden Delicious type. The tree is medium-sized, early-bearing and productive, showing a tendency towards biennial bearing.

Fruits have a round-conical or truncate-conical shape, reaching a mass of 140–180 g. The skin is light yellow, becoming golden upon ripening. The flesh is firm and juicy, distinguished by its sensitivity to mechanical damage. The storage life of the fruits is short, ranging from 2–3 weeks to 2 months under refrigerator conditions.

The variety possesses high resistance to fruit rot. In specialized literature, it may be found under the names Earli Gold or Snygold, and in some cases, it may be mistakenly identified as the Papierowski variety.
