The tree is medium-sized, 2.5–4 meters tall, with a compact rounded crown. Fruits are round or slightly flattened, weighing from 85 to 160 g, covered with smooth glossy skin of greenish-yellow or yellow color. Fruit flesh is white or cream, very juicy, crunchy, with a sweet taste and delicate aroma.
Mid-season ripening variety, the harvest is collected from mid-August to mid-September. The plant possesses high resistance to scab, frost resistance up to -28 °C. The variety is partially self-fertile; for increased yield, cross-pollination with Hosui, Kosui, Shinseiki, or Chojuro varieties is recommended.
Fruits hold firmly on branches and are distinguished by high keeping quality, maintaining quality for up to 5 months under refrigerated conditions. Used fresh, as well as for making juices, desserts, and salads.
