Breeder: Found by Glocker in Enyed, Hungary in 1868

Origin: Hungary

Blossom, pollination: Self-fertile, medium sized blossoms with white petals, long florescence in early-mid season (8 days)

Cropping: Very productive

Maturity: Early-middle (late July to beginning of August)

Fruit characteristics: Medium sized, 48-50g, round-conical shape, greenish yellow colour, luscious yellow when ripe,

very good and aromatic taste, sweet and sourly, slightly bitter kernel, sugar content 8.6%,
good handling and storage abilities, gelatinises easily and is therefore one of the best apricots for preserves

Tree habit: Small and broad treetops with slightly drooping branches, in the beginning strong and later medium vigour, healthy

Susceptibilities: Winter-hardy and resistant against frosts during blossoming

Genetic characterisation:
To elucidate the genetic relationship among apricot cultivars, a dendrogram generated from the UPGMA cluster analysis  was produced (Dendrogram).
