Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is vigorous, reaching 10–15 meters in height, and forms a wide and dense crown. The variety is mid-late, with fruits ripening by the 5th cherry week. It is self-sterile and requires pollinator varieties such as Regina or Schneiders späte Knorpelkirsche.

The fruits are large, broad-heart-shaped, with a shiny bright yellow skin and a red blush. The flesh is light yellow, very firm, juicy, and has a sweet taste with spicy notes. The plant has good winter hardiness and resistance to bacterial canker Pseudomonas syringae.
