Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is characterized by medium growth with an upright broad crown. The fruits are medium-sized, weighing 120–160 g, and have a round-elongated or globular-conical shape. The skin is yellow with a bright scarlet-orange striped blush; the flesh is creamy-white, juicy, with a dessert sweet taste and honey aroma.

The variety is self-incompatible and requires pollinators; it is prone to overloading with crop, which requires fruit thinning and pruning. The plant has low disease resistance, being particularly highly susceptible to powdery mildew. When stored under ultra-low oxygen conditions, the fruits keep until May.
