Variety bred in the French region of Ardèche, a selection of hybrid plants derived from the free pollination of the Japanese chestnut Castanea crenata and the European chestnut Castanea sativa. The variety was registered in 1986. The tree has a strong root system, it is also suitable as a rootstock for good compatibility with other chestnut varieties. This variety can be grown up to 300 m above sea level.

Origin: Castanea crenata x Castanea sativa
Vigour: moderate, compact, adult trees can reach a size of about 8 m.
Blossom: cross-pollinate, therefore requires the presence of a pollinator in its vicinity, for example different varieties of Castanea sativa or hybrids of C.sativa x C.crenata
Fruit: large to very large, shiny, mahogany red. The trees have an early yield onset after planting.
Harvest season: mid-early to mid-late, October. Chestnuts can be stored without refrigeration for about 4 weeks. For long-term storage, they should be placed in a refrigerator at a temperature range of -1°C to 4°C. Wrapping them in a plastic bag will prevent drying out and loss of quality.

We draw your attention to the quarantine pest of the sweet chestnut, Dryocosmus kuriphilus, which appeared for the first time in Central Europe.
