According to Walter Hartmann (1996, 2000) the full name is 'Transparent from Croncels'.

description
The tree, which is initially strong and later medium-strong, forms diagonally upright leading branches with dense lateral branching. Because of its vigor and frost hardiness, the variety was used as a stem former. The variety is susceptible to scab , powdery mildew , viral broom growth and leaf mosaic viruses . It cannot tolerate heavy soil because it will get cancer there , and no harsh climate because the fruits will not ripen there.
The flowering time is long lasting. The flowers develop terminally on short shoots or laterally on one- and two-year long shoots and are not sensitive to frost or weather.
fruit
The medium-sized to very large fruit is 80 mm wide and 67 mm high and weighs 195 grams. The smooth, dry to slightly fatty, medium-thick and firm skin is greenish-yellow to reddish-yellow in color and frosted with light orange. The yellowish to light salmon yellow pulp is loose, almost frothy, medium-fine- celled , juicy, delicately sweet and sour and depending on the location, little to fine aromatic. The picking period begins at the end of August and lasts until mid-September. It is ready for consumption from September to October. The apple is very sensitive to pressure and transport and can not be stored for longer than a month. It is a sought-after cake apple in bakeries.
