Variety description

10 August 2026

The tree is medium-sized with an upright, compact crown; branches are often positioned at an acute angle to the leader. The variety is partially self-fertile; for increased yield, the presence of pollinator varieties such as Conference or Comice is recommended.

Fruits are elongated in shape, greenish-yellow in color, sometimes with golden-brown russeting. The flesh is firm, juicy, cream-colored, sweet, and has a distinct aroma. The fruits are suitable for long-term storage until February and are resistant to transportation and heat treatment.

The variety possesses resistance to physiological wilt and has low susceptibility to fire blight and pear psylla. The harvest ripens in October.
