Sensibilidad y resistencia

Polinización

autoestéril (necesita una variedad polinizadora)

En tercios de mes (principio / mitad / final) para el hemisferio norte en clima templado; la altitud y el año los desplazan.

Fruto

Fine-celled, fully melting, very juicy, sweet with a fine, at times tart acidity and abundant pleasant spice. On poor sites flavour quality suffers.

Crecimiento

Medium-strong to strong growth. For garden and standard orchard, at higher sites as espalier. Not wind-firm.

Rendimiento

Early start of bearing, later high and regular yields.

Observaciones

Warm sites with nutrient-rich, adequately moist soils needed, cultivation up to 350 m; higher site demands. Good frost hardiness. Blossom mid-early to mid-late, tree-ripe mid September, ready to eat September to early October; keeps only 2 to 3 weeks.

Cuidados

As it is not wind-firm, pick before full tree ripeness. Note the short eating window and use quickly.
