Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has moderately strong growth vigor, reaching a height of 4 to 8 meters. The crown has a narrowly pyramidal or broadly pyramidal shape with a semi-open structure and branches extending upward at an acute angle. The bark is brown and furrowed.

The fruits are quite large and pear-shaped. The skin is pale green, acquiring a greenish-yellow hue upon ripening. The flesh of the fruits is soft, juicy, and aromatic; the taste is sweet, sometimes with a slight acidity. The variety is a dessert type, suitable for fresh consumption and culinary processing.

The variety is classified as an autumn type; the fruits are ready for harvest in the second half of September and are capable of maintaining quality for several months. The plant is characterized as winter-hardy with moderate resistance to diseases. The variety is not self-fertile and requires the presence of pollinator varieties nearby. Due to its growth characteristics, the tree is suitable for cultivation in form culture, including espaliers.
