Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was bred by crossing Flaming Gold and Perfection varieties. The tree is characterized by vigorous growth and an upright crown shape. To ensure reliable fruit bearing, it is recommended to plant it next to the Katy pollinator variety.

The fruits are large and bright orange in color. The flesh is firm and easily separates from the pit, although it becomes soft when fully ripe. The variety is characterized by a tendency for fruit cracking.

The ripening period occurs in the third to fourth week of May. The harvest is intended for sale in the early fresh produce market, home consumption, or making jam.
