The tree is medium-sized, reaching a height of 2–4 meters, and forms a neat, rounded crown. The variety is partially self-fertile; to increase yield, the use of pollinators such as «Hosui» or «Sekui» is recommended. Fruit-bearing begins in the second or third year after planting.
Fruits are rounded, slightly flattened, with a weight of 130–250 g (up to 650 g with thinning). The skin is thin, light green or yellow-bronze with russeting. The flesh is creamy white, crisp, and very juicy. The harvest ripens between mid-August and the end of September.
The variety possesses high frost resistance, withstanding temperature drops down to -28...-30 °С. It is resistant to Alternaria leaf spot and moderately resistant to scab. Due to the tendency to overbear, compulsory thinning of inflorescences is required.
