The variety is a local cultivar originating from the Lazio region. It is included in regional and national registries of genetic resources of agricultural interest and is monitored by the ARSIAL agency as an object of agrobiodiversity conservation.
The name of the SPUGNACCIA variety comes from the Italian word for "sponge," which reflects the characteristic texture of the fruit flesh. The variety was traditionally grown in local agricultural systems of the region, while detailed data on ripening times and fruit taste qualities are absent.
