Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a clone of 'Starking Delicious' with a 'spur' growth type, characterized by shortened internodes and a compact crown shape. Trees of this type are suitable for intensive orchards, require less pruning, and are distinguished by high winter hardiness and drought tolerance compared to the original variety.

The fruits are of winter maturity, large, weighing 150–250 g, conical-rounded, often ribbed, with an intense bright red color. The flesh is cream-colored, fine-grained, juicy, sweet, and possesses a spicy aroma. The fruits can be stored for up to 4–5 months.

The variety is self-infertile and requires the presence of pollinators for full fruiting. The trees are relatively resistant to scab and powdery mildew, although they may show moderate susceptibility to certain pathogens.
