Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized with a conical, moderately dense crown. Fruits weighing 150–250 g, round-conical or slightly flattened in shape, have a golden-yellow color, sometimes with a bronze blush. The firm skin conceals juicy, tender flesh with a sweet honey flavor.

The variety is late-winter, and the consumption period for the fruits lasts from October to May. The fruits are suitable for fresh consumption and various types of processing. The variety is self-sterile and requires cross-pollination.

The plant possesses high winter hardiness, superior to the Golden Delicious variety. Fruits are prone to dropping before full maturity and require careful handling due to the skin's susceptibility to damage. Data on disease resistance is contradictory, which suggests the need for preventive measures.
