Variety description

10 August 2026

An early autumn ripening variety with fruits ready for harvest in the second to third ten-day period of August or early September. The tree is actively growing, reaching 6 meters on seed rootstocks and up to 4 meters on dwarf rootstocks; the crown is dense, inverse-pyramidal, oval, or round in shape.

The fruits have a mass of 140 to 190 g, a round, often asymmetric shape, and smooth yellow-green skin with a red blush. The flesh is cream-colored, juicy, with a sweet taste and mild acidity. The shelf life of the fruits is about 2 months; transportability is high.

The variety contains the Vf gene, providing immunity to scab, but it has low resistance to powdery mildew. During heavy harvests, significant branch deflection is observed under the weight of the fruits. It is a dual-purpose variety, suitable for fresh consumption and processing.
