About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A German breeding from Geisenheim, popular above all for its high tolerance to sharka, a good choice especially in areas where the virus disease is a problem. At the end of July, medium sized, yellow orange fruits ripen with a pleasant sweetness. It is self fertile and grows healthily and robustly, which also makes it interesting for the home garden without intensive plant protection.
Juicy, sweet flesh with a rounded apricot aroma, reliable in flavour and versatile in the kitchen.
