Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a spontaneous natural mutation of the green Anjou pear. Trees are medium-sized, reaching a height of 3.5–4 meters depending on the rootstock. The variety is characterized by good winter hardiness and demonstrates resistance to fire blight.

Fruits have a short, wide-pear shape with a short neck and smooth skin of a dark burgundy or deep red color. The flesh is firm and juicy, possesses a sweet taste with a mild aroma. The variety is versatile in use, suitable for fresh consumption and culinary processing.

Cross-pollination is required to obtain a harvest. The plant requires sunny areas and fertile, well-drained soils. Due to the lack of color change of the skin during ripening, the readiness of the fruits for consumption is determined by the softness of the area near the stem.
