FRUIT VARIETIES
Leskovačka This is the most spread variety which ripens in the 1st half of October. The fruit is diverse in size (200-500g), bright yellow in color, with firm, yellow, pleasantly sour and aromatic mesocarp. It bears transport well.
Morava This cultivar was created at the Agricultural Institute in Cacak, in 1987, by cross-breeding of MAMUT and LESKOVACKA varieties. It ripens 7 days before LESKOVACKA quince. The fruit is large (300g), round-cone in shape, with bright yellow exocarp. The mesocarp is semi-frim, dense, succulent, with mildly sour taste and pleasant aroma. It’s convenient for fresh consumption due to relatively soft flesh, and it’s excellent for all kinds of processing.
Champion This an old American variety, which is sometimes grown in Serbia. The fruit is large (350g), with pear-like shape, bright yellow exocarp cover in small grey spots. The pale yellow mesocarp is moderately juicy, aromatic and pleasantly sour.
