Evaluation
RESI ™ is a new, attractive plum variety in the ripening range of the domestic plum, which has been widespread and well-known since the 17th century.
The special characteristic of this new variety is its hypersensitivity to the plum pox virus, which makes it ideal for planting in infested areas.
Another quality feature is the heat resistance of the flesh. The very good baking properties and sweet flavour offer a wide range of usage possibilities.
