Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the Amarelle group—light-colored cherries with colorless juice. The tree has a spreading, bush-like crown shape and is characterized by moderate growth vigor. The leaves are small, oval-rounded, and attached to short petioles.

The fruits are large, round in shape, and slightly flattened at the poles. The skin is thin, changing color from bright red to dark red upon ripening. The fruit flesh is soft with a pronounced acidic taste. A characteristic feature of the variety is a very short and thick peduncle.

The variety ripens in July and is traditionally used for making preserves, compotes, jams, baked goods, and liqueurs. In literature, the variety is described as reliable and self-fertile.
