This variety, selected by VSTISP, was obtained by crossing Zhukovskaya x Korinka. Breeders: Kh.K. Enikeev, S.N. Satarova, A.I. Evstratov, V.S. Simonov, A.M. Mikhayev. Introduced into the State Register in 2001 for the Central region.
The tree is medium-sized with a medium-dense, round-oval crown. The crown's foliage density is medium. The bark color of the trunk is dark gray. The trunk bark surface has longitudinal cracks. The shoot growth direction is vertical. The bark color is light brown. The number of lenticels is very small. The bud is slightly offset from the shoot. The leaf blade is narrowly oval, large, dark green. The leaf apex is strongly pointed. The leaf base is wedge-shaped. The leaf blade is folded along its length. The leaf blade consistency is elastic. The upper surface of the leaf blade is non-glossy. The leaf margin is doubly serrated. The petiole is medium-length and strongly colored. The glands are small, red, in small quantity. The inflorescence has a medium number of flowers. The corolla diameter is medium, flat-shaped. The petals are white, broadly oval, loosely arranged, slightly wrinkled. The stamens are short, in large quantity. The pistil is short. The calyx is cup-shaped. The pedicel is long. There are bracteoles. Fruits are primarily borne on cluster branches.
The fruit is broadly heart-shaped. The main skin color is dark red. The flesh is dark red, medium density, with red juice. The peduncle is long, medium thickness. Bracteoles are absent. The stone is oval, long, medium width, thin. The stone mass is large — 0.35 g, which is 8.3% of the fruit mass. The fruits are large (4.6 g), sour-sweet, dessert flavor, versatile use, with semi-dry fruit peduncle detachment. The fruits contain 16.3% dry matter, 10% sugars, 1.4% organic acids, and 13.5 mg/100g ascorbic acid.
Flowering and fruit ripening periods are medium early. Trees enter fruiting early (at 3-4 years). Fruits ripen uniformly. The variety is self-fertile. High yield (8-10 kg per tree). The tree, shoots, and flower buds are moderately sensitive to frost, flowers — to spring frosts. Drought and heat resistance are medium. Resistance to coccomyces is medium.
Advantages of the variety: high yield, fruit size, and taste qualities.
Disadvantages: medium winter hardiness and insufficient disease resistance.
