Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree reaches 3–4 meters in height and has a spreading crown. The variety possesses high overall disease resistance and good winter hardiness, but requires irrigation during drought. The fruits ripen in the mid-late period and are capable of remaining on the branches for a long time after reaching maturity.

The broad heart-shaped or rounded fruits have dark red skin, which becomes black-red upon full ripening. The flesh is burgundy, juicy, with a sweet taste and slight acidity. The medium-sized stone partially separates from the flesh.

The variety is self-incompatible; planting pollinator varieties is required for crop formation. Due to its characteristics, it is widely used in breeding as a parent form for developing new varieties.
