The Geneva Early variety was obtained by crossing the Quinty and Julyred varieties. The tree has a compact crown of medium density and reaches a height of 2.5–3.5 meters. A distinctive feature is high precocity: fruiting can occur as early as one year after planting.
Fruits are medium-sized with a weight of 90–150 g and have a round-conical or flat-round shape. The skin is shiny, greenish-yellow with a diffused red-pink blush and a waxy bloom. The flesh is creamy, juicy, and tender. Fruit ripening is non-simultaneous, requiring several pickings, while the fruits are firmly held on the branches.
