Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized or vigorous, reaching a height of 3–4 meters. The crown of young plants is rounded, becoming more spreading with age. The variety was obtained by crossing Van and Stella varieties. Fruit ripening occurs 38–40 days after the Burlat variety.

Fruits have an average caliber of 26–28 mm and a weight of 9–12 g. The flesh is red, firm, and juicy. The variety has high transportability and resistance to fruit cracking. The tree is characterized by high yield and good strength of skeletal branches.

The variety is self-fertile and serves as a pollen donor for other varieties. The winter hardiness of the plant reaches -30°C. There is a noted possibility of susceptibility to fungal diseases, which may require preventive treatments.
