Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized, reaching 3–4 meters in height, with a wide-spreading crown of medium density. It enters fruit-bearing 2–4 years after planting. The variety is self-incompatible; for crop production, pollinators such as Red Heart, Shiro, or Ozark Premier are required.

The fruits are large, round in shape, covered with dark red skin and a waxy bloom. The flesh is dark red, juicy, firm, with a sweet-and-sour taste. The stone is of medium size and, as a rule, does not separate completely. The yield is 37–70 kg per tree.

The variety is classified as medium-late; harvest occurs from the second half of August to early September. It is characterized by good winter hardiness down to -30°C and resistance to major fungal diseases, including sharka. It is sensitive to early spring frosts during the flowering period.
