Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has weak to moderate vigor, forms a spreading crown, and bears fruit on spurs. The variety is characterized by high winter hardiness. Fruits are medium to large in size, round, often asymmetrical in shape, with a greenish-yellow ground color and a bright red-orange blush over 60–85% of the surface.

The fruit flesh is cream or yellowish, juicy and crisp, with a sweet-and-sour taste. The variety is distinguished by an unusually long storage period for early apples—up to 7–8 weeks under refrigerated conditions. The fruits are suitable for fresh consumption and culinary processing.

The variety is susceptible to scab, possesses moderate resistance to fire blight, and some resistance to powdery mildew and cedar apple rust.
