Shoots straight, internode length medium — 2.1 cm, brown-purple, glabrous. Vegetative bud conical with pointed apex, medium size, pressed. Generative bud oval-egg-shaped, rounded apex, medium size, pressed. Leaf blade shape elongated-ovate, apex obtuse, base narrow-angled. Leaf blade length medium — 7.5 cm, width medium — 5 cm, area medium — 37.5 cm2. Color green. Leaf blade slightly concave, elastic, glossy, medium thickness, glabrous above, weakly hairy below along central and lateral veins. Leaf margin doubly serrated. Petiole medium — 2 cm, with anthocyanin coloration. Stipules absent. Flower: 1-2 flowers in bud, corolla saucer-shaped, medium size — 25 mm, petals egg-shaped, 9 mm long, 12 mm wide, medium size. Bud color white, petal color white. Petals medium-connate. Petal apex rounded, margin wavy, petal corrugation medium. Stamens: medium number — 25, 5-10 mm long, slightly curved. Anther color yellow. Pistil: 6 mm long, style 5 mm long, straight. Stigma rounded, positioned above and below stamens. Absence of ovary hairs. Calyx cup-shaped, glabrous. Calyx lobes broadly oval, 5 mm long, 2.5 mm wide, glabrous, margin smooth. Pedicel medium length — 12 mm, glabrous. Fruit set primarily on 1-6-year-old spurs and fruiting branches.
Fruits reverse-egg-shaped, unequal-sided, large, height 43 mm, width 32 mm, thickness 33 mm, weight 32 g. Main color green, covering color red-purple, solid (100% surface). Absence of hairs, few subcutaneous points, golden color, no stripes. Waxy bloom dense. Apex rounded, base elongated (with neck). Pit depth medium. Ventral suture medium-expressed, does not crack. Skin separates with difficulty, medium thickness, loose consistency. Flesh color yellow-green, darkens moderately on air, cavity color single, matching flesh. Flesh granular-fibrous consistency, dense. Pedicel long — 16 mm, medium thickness — 2 mm. Stone elongated-oval, length 23 mm, width 11 mm, thickness 7 mm, small — weight 1.3 g, 3.7% of fruit weight. Color brown. Apex pointed, base strongly elongated. Dorsal suture closed. Ventral suture narrow. Central rib weakly expressed. Lateral ribs absent. Ridge small, blunt. Surface medium-ridged with small bumps.
Fruits attractive, resistant to cracking, hold well on tree after ripening. Flesh extremely sweet, high quality. Fruits contain, on fresh weight: dry matter — 19.2%, sugars — 12.6%, acids — 0.65%, sugar-to-acid ratio 19.38, pectin substances — 0.52%, polyphenols — 433 mg/100g, ascorbic acid — 5.9 mg/100g. Fruit pedicel detachment dry. Universal variety, good for transport, fresh consumption, best for making prunes. Good for other preservation methods. Preservation evaluation: frozen fruit — 4.4 points, prunes — 4.5 points, compote — 4.3 points, juice with pulp — 4.0 points, marinade — 4.3 points.
Flowering period medium — mid-April, self-sterile. Ripening period medium-late — end of August. Early fruiting — fruits set on 3-4 year. Long-lived tree. High winter hardiness. Medium fruiting regularity. High yield. Moderate drought resistance. Resistant to moniliosis, clasterosporiosis, polystigmosis, rust. Suitable for orchards using intensive technologies. Easily propagated by suckers.
Advantages of variety: high yield, winter hardiness, high dried fruit quality.
Disadvantages: self-sterility, tendency to form sharp angles of branch departure from trunk.
