Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized, reaching a height of 3.0–3.5 m. The crown has a spherical, often sparse shape. The variety enters the fruiting stage in the 3rd–4th year, however, full yields occur by 7–8 years. Branching is sparse, which may limit the abundance of the yield. The variety is partially self-fertile; for stable fruiting, the presence of pollinator varieties with the same flowering period is required.

Fruits are large, with a mass of 30–40 to 55–70 g, round-oval in shape. The skin is greenish-yellow or light yellow, sometimes with an orange blush and a whitish bloom. The flesh is greenish-yellow, juicy, sweet, and the stone separates easily. Fruit ripening occurs at the end of August — beginning of September.

The variety possesses good winter hardiness and drought tolerance. Disadvantages include the susceptibility of the fruits to fruit rot under conditions of high humidity. Intended for universal use, including fresh consumption and various types of processing.
