About this variety

Machine-translated, may contain errors.

A robust old landrace from the Rhenish Vorgebirge that is considered true to seed: trees raised from the stone stay very close to the mother plant. The fruits do not ripen until the beginning of September and are yellow fleshed, spicy and firm. Compared with many newer breeds it copes somewhat better with peach leaf curl. Self fertile, and so rewarding even as a single tree.

Robustly spicy and sweet with firm yellow flesh that parts well from the stone, wonderful for preserving and for liqueur.
