Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree reaches a height of 2 to 4 meters with a crown width of up to 3 meters. The medium-sized fruits have a green-yellow ground color with an orange-red striped blush. The fruit flesh is juicy, crisp, and has an intense aroma.

The variety is self-sterile and requires the presence of diploid pollinators such as Gala, Elstar, or Golden Delicious. The harvest matures in late September — early October. In standard cold storage, the fruits keep until December; in controlled atmosphere conditions, until February.

The variety has medium susceptibility to scab and may be prone to canker. The plant is inclined toward moderate fruit bearing and requires regular pruning, crown formation, and fruit thinning to prevent biennial bearing.
