Description

No fruit – purely a pollen donor.
Growth
Vigorous, thorny shrub with abundant flowering and plentiful pollen.

No fruit yield; one male pollinates roughly 5–6 female shrubs (wind-pollinated).
Notes
Sold as a clone group (Pollmix 1–4) with staggered flowering to secure long bloom overlap with the females.
