Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is moderately vigorous, forming a spreading, wide, and dense 'compact' type crown with a large number of short shoots, which requires thinning pruning. Under the weight of the fruits, the branches may hang down slightly. The variety has good winter hardiness.

The fruits are medium-sized, spherical or slightly flattened in shape with noticeable ribbing. The skin is greenish-yellow, dry, and covered with a dark red blush. The flesh is greenish, firm, and juicy. The variety enters fruiting early and is prone to biennial bearing.

The fruits can be stored in a regular refrigerator until the end of March, and in controlled atmosphere conditions until the end of June. There are also studies on tetraploid clones of the variety that possess increased resistance to scab and drought.
