Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is diploid, characterized by medium to strong vigor, spreading crown, and good branching ability. The tree is precocious, distinguished by high and regular yield without pronounced biennial bearing.

Fruits are of medium to large size, spherical shape, yellow color, sometimes with an orange blush. The flesh is firm, juicy, with a crisp texture and balanced sweet-and-sour taste. The variety shows high resistance to scab, low susceptibility to powdery mildew and fire blight.

Harvesting occurs in the second half of September. The fruits possess excellent keeping quality: under normal storage conditions they are kept until May, in controlled atmosphere conditions — until August.
