Storage

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

Very large, elongated asymmetric fruit, green-brown with pink-amber flesh; sweet but sometimes bland in cool autumns.

Vigorous growth with large deeply lobed leaves; very frost hardy.

Reliable breba producer; the main crop does not always ripen fully in cool locations.

One of the oldest cultivars grown in northern Europe.
