The tree of this variety is small and relatively low-growing; growth parameters depend on the rootstock. Fruits are small, rounded, with golden-yellow skin, often featuring red dots or a blush. The flesh is juicy and sweet, and the stone separates easily.
The variety is classified as mid-season or late-season, with harvest in Europe typically occurring in August and September. The tree is characterized as hardy and disease-resistant, with winter hardiness suitable for a temperate climate down to -17 °C.
The variety is the result of centuries of folk selection. Due to the high sugar content and distinct aroma, the fruits are widely used in confectionery and are considered benchmark raw material for the production of plum brandy.
