Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety was obtained by crossing the varieties Čačanská Najbolja and Auerbacher. The tree is characterized by weak to medium growth vigor and compactness, making it suitable for intensive orchards; there are also forms suitable for container cultivation.

The fruits are ellipsoid in shape, weighing 35–50 g, dark blue in color with a waxy bloom. The flesh is firm and juicy, yellowish-green in hue, and the stone separates well. The variety matures in August–September.

The plum is self-fertile, characterized by high yield and a tendency to overload with fruits, which requires fruit thinning. It possesses tolerance to Plum pox virus, but exhibits susceptibility to bacterial burn and Valsa infections.
