Storage

Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Description

Rounded-conical, medium fruit with smooth, canary-yellow, attractive skin. White, slightly fibrous, very juicy and firm flesh, aromatic and lightly acidulous.

Growth

Subtropical tree, cultivated in the Mediterranean climate of Spain.

Yield

Earlier ripening than Fino de Jete, therefore of interest for the start of the season.

Notes

Hand pollination improves fruit set and size.
