10 August 2026

The variety is a female hybrid clone with a spreading crown and a straight, cylindrical trunk. The tree bark is light gray in color with a smooth surface. Upon opening, buds and young leaves are brown-tinted; mature leaves turn dark green.

The tree is noted for a high growth rate at a young age and good rooting ability of cuttings. The variety is suitable for planting on clay soils and is characterized by ease of pruning, although it may form epicormic branches. Buds open at mid-season or late dates.

The basic wood density index is 0.33 g/cm³. The variety possesses increased ecological stability and is adapted to major biotic stresses.
