Variety description

10 August 2026

The fruits have a round or round-conical shape and weigh 100–140 g. Skin color is greenish-yellow with a brownish-red or purple blush, sometimes with russeting. The flesh is white or cream-colored, firm and juicy; fruits maintain quality until January.

The tree has medium vigor and a rounded crown, with fruiting beginning in the 4th–5th year. The variety is self-sterile or partially self-fertile. The plant shows resistance to powdery mildew and canker, but is susceptible to scab. Thinning of ovaries and pruning are required to maintain yields.
