Description
Fruit
Small to medium, roundish fruit with thick red skin. Firm, sweet flesh.
Growth
Compact, densely foliaged tree; flowers late and is therefore especially reliable in warm, variable climates.
Yield
Late season; the most reliable and consistently bearing commercial cultivar, important in Australia and China.
Notes
Seed size variable. Its late flowering often gives good crops when early cultivars fail.
