Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is moderately vigorous with a spreading crown, fruiting on spurs. The variety is diploid, blooms in mid-season and possesses partial self-fertility, requiring the presence of pollinators for a better yield. It is distinguished by good resistance to scab, canker, and powdery mildew.

Fruits are medium-sized, round-conical or flattened in shape, covered with thin rough skin. The flesh is juicy, firm, fine-grained, ivory-colored. The variety is not intended for long-term storage; fruits lose quality quickly after harvest.

Fruit thinning is recommended to maintain fruit size. With sudden changes in soil moisture, fruits may crack. In addition to fresh consumption, the variety can be used in cider production.
