Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Very large, roundish-oval fruit with slightly wrinkled skin, aromatic-sweet flesh and good flavour.

Productive; markedly more fertile with a pollinator. Ripens mid to late autumn.

One of the best-known cultivars worldwide; often cited as a benchmark for fruit size.
