Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized, reaching a height of 4–5 meters. The crown is spherical, sparse, spreading-drooping, with thin, long, hanging shoots. The variety is partially self-fertile and requires the planting of pollinators to increase yield.

The fruit weighs 75–120 g, is pear-shaped, and ripens in the second half of July. Harvesting is recommended one week before full maturity due to a tendency for rapid over-ripening. The variety is resistant to scab, has medium winter hardiness, and is incompatible with quince rootstocks without the use of an intercalary graft.
