Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by crossing the Renklod Ulena and Early Favorite varieties. The tree has a medium height of 3 to 6 meters with a dense, compact, rounded crown. The variety is characterized as precocious, starting to bear fruit 3–4 years after planting.

Fruits weighing 20–30 g have a round or round-oval shape. The skin is thin, yellow when ripe with a purple-red blush and a waxy coating. The flesh is golden-yellow, juicy, sweet and sour with an aroma, and the stone separates. The variety is versatile in use, possesses resistance to diseases and frost resistance, and is adapted to the conditions of Northern Europe.
