description
The tree is vigorous and has a broad pyramidal crown. The hanging branches are densely branched. It is susceptible to mildew, but less sensitive to scab.
The flowers develop terminally on short shoots or laterally on one- and two-year long shoots. The less sensitive flowers are very long-lasting.
The small to medium-sized, flat-spherical fruit is 66 mm wide and 52 mm high and weighs 110 grams. The smooth, dry, supple and thin skin is colored yellow-green and has a light orange to dark reddish orange coating. The medium-firm, yellowish white pulp is fine-celled, juicy and delicately sweet and sour. It is ripe for picking from mid to late October, and ripe for consumption from December to March. The storable apple can also be consumed fresh, but is sensitive to pressure and transport.
