Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is characterized by high productivity and is prone to overloading with crop, which requires thinning pruning to maintain fruit size. The fruits have a round shape, dark red, juicy and firm flesh with a stone that separates only partially. The variety is versatile in use, suitable for fresh consumption and processing, and is transportable.

The variety is self-incompatible, belongs to pollination group I (S1S2), and requires the presence of pollinator varieties such as Burlat, Bing, or Van. It possesses good winter hardiness and general resistance to diseases. Sensitivity to fruit cracking is assessed as medium.
