Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by crossing Blenheim Orange and Newton Wonder. The tree is of vigorous growth type and prone to forming fruit spurs. The plant height varies depending on the rootstock, reaching about 4 meters when using MM106 rootstock.

The fruits have a round, sometimes slightly ribbed shape; the skin is greenish-yellow with reddish-brown stripes and a blush. The flesh is cream-colored, firm, juicy, and the taste is moderately acidic or sweet-tart. Harvesting is carried out in mid-October, and the consumption period lasts until March.

The variety is characterized by high winter hardiness and good resistance to powdery mildew, although it may be affected by scab in conditions of high humidity. The apple tree is partially self-fertile. The fruits have a long shelf life, reaching 5–6 months.

The variety is classified as a culinary one, adapted for baking, juice production, and cider making. During long-term storage, the flavor qualities of the fruits change, becoming sweeter, which allows them to be used as dessert apples.
