Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is vigorous; at a young age, the crown has a pyramidal or high-oval shape, becoming more sparse and rounded with age. Shoots are upright and prone to bareness. The variety is characterized by high yield.

Fruits are large, weighing 150–200 g, round-conical in shape with pronounced ribbing at the apex. The primary fruit color is light green or yellowish, almost completely covered by a solid dark red or crimson blush. The flesh is firm, juicy, tender, with a light cream shade.

Harvest maturity occurs in September–October, consumer maturity in early November. The variety is for universal use, suitable for long-term storage. Susceptibility to scab, fire blight, and a tendency of the fruit to core mold during storage have been noted.
