Pastor Wilhelm Wilms from Nieheim in Westphalia described it for the first time in 1904 and spread it further. Today this variety is common in orchards all over Germany.

The fruits of the apple are medium to large in size. The shape is spherical to spherical and slightly ribbed.
The green base color changes to a deep yellow with long-term storage with intensely bright cherry-red washed-out stripes on the sunny side. It is covered with numerous small green dots. The calyx is closed and lies in a deep, somewhat irregular, slightly ribbed depression. The stem is short to medium long, in a moderately deep depression.
The flesh is yellowish and very juicy, crumbly and tasty. It is strongly reminiscent of the Gravensteiner , smells and tastes pleasantly sweet-wine and delicately spicy.
