Variety description

10 August 2026

The Royal Blenheim variety is a tree with a spreading crown of medium size. The fruits are of medium or large size, round in shape, and golden-orange in color. The flesh is characterized by juiciness, tenderness, and a characteristic aroma. The variety is self-fertile and matures in July.

In the Russian-speaking segment, the name «Korolevskiy» (Royal) is often used as a collective term for seedlings or locally bred varieties. Such trees can reach 5 meters in height and are characterized as self-fertile, high-yielding, and early-maturing with winter hardiness down to -20°C.
