Variety description

10 August 2026

The fruits ripen in September. They have a yellow ground color with a red blush and stripes; their flesh is notable for its juiciness, crisp texture, sweetness, and aroma. The variety is a descendant of the Fuji variety.

The tree is characterized by vigorous growth. The variety possesses genetically determined resistance to scab (Rvi6/Vf gene) and low susceptibility to powdery mildew. In scientific research, the variety is used as an object for studying fruit tree architecture, growth processes, branching, and fruiting.

The variety is used in integrated fruit growing and organic farming, including as a component of mixed plantings to reduce the infectious background in orchards.
