Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has an upright crown with thin branches. The variety is tetraploid and self-incompatible; 'Edinburgh', 'Ave', and 'Suhkruploom' are recommended as pollinators. Winter hardiness is rated as weak, while the variety shows relative resistance to diseases.

Fruits are medium-sized, round-oval in shape, reddish-purple in color with a heavy bloom. The flesh is yellowish-green, soft, with a sweet-sour taste. Fruit skin can have a bitter aftertaste, and the stone separates from the flesh only partially. Mature fruits are prone to shedding.
