Variety description

10 August 2026

Fruits are large or medium-sized, bell-shaped or obovate, sometimes uneven. The skin is smooth, thin, yellow-green with brown dots. The flesh is white, melting, buttery, sweet, with slight acidity and aroma, without pronounced stone cells.

The tree is of moderate growth, can be insufficiently vigorous and requires a protected site. The variety is winter hardy, grows better on moderately heavy or dry soils. When grown on quince rootstock, it often requires the use of an interstock due to insufficient compatibility.

The variety is used in breeding as a parent form. Data on disease resistance, in particular to fire blight, are characterized as contradictory depending on the region of cultivation.
