Variety description

10 August 2026

Trees reach a height of 3–4 meters and have a compact narrow-pyramidal or rounded crown, which allows for the use of high-density planting schemes. The variety is precocious, producing its first harvest 2–3 years after planting.

Fruits are large, with a mass of 180–250 g, oblong-conical in shape with five characteristic "humps" at the apex. The skin is firm, covered with a waxy bloom, and the color is deep red. The light cream flesh is firm and juicy, distinguished by high keeping quality, which allows the harvest to be stored for up to 8 months.

The variety is classified as late-winter; harvest maturity occurs in late September — October. The question of self-fertility remains debatable, as contradictory data on the need for pollinators are found in publications. Resistance to scab and spotting is assessed as weak or moderate.
