Variety description

10 August 2026

The trees are medium-sized, reaching a height of 3–5 meters, and have a compact pyramidal crown of medium density. Fruit-bearing begins in the 2–3rd year after planting. The variety is distinguished by high resistance to fungal diseases and high winter hardiness, withstanding frosts down to –28°C.

The fruits weigh 80–120 g and have a spherical or round-oval shape. The skin is firm, from dark maroon to almost black in color, with a bluish waxy bloom. The flesh is light yellow, juicy, and has a sweet taste with a slight acidity. The fruits are suitable for industrial production and maintain their marketable appearance for up to two weeks after harvest.

The variety has a universal purpose and is suitable for both fresh consumption and processing. Due to potential self-sterility or partial self-fertility, the use of pollinator varieties blooming during the same period is recommended to ensure a stable yield.
