Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree has moderate vigor, is highly compatible with quince rootstocks, and can also be grown on wild pear rootstocks. The variety is self-infertile and requires pollinators such as «Конференция», «Комис», «Вильямс» or «Beurré Hardy».

The fruits are medium to large in size, pear-shaped or round with bronze skin. The white flesh is characterized by a tender texture, juiciness, pronounced sweetness, and a spicy aroma. The fruits can be stored for up to 3–4 months and require careful harvesting.

The variety has good resistance to scab and fire blight. It is intended primarily for fresh consumption and is suitable for culinary processing.
